General Question

A: Digital pathology is the practice of converting traditional glass microscope slides into high-resolution digital images that can be viewed, analysed, and shared electronically. This technology transforms the traditional microscope-based diagnostic process into a modern, efficient digital workflow.

A: The process involves scanning glass slides using specialized whole slide imaging (WSI) scanners to create high-resolution digital images. These digital slides can then be viewed on computer screens using specialized software, allowing pathologists to make diagnoses remotely and collaborate more effectively.

A: Yes, numerous studies have demonstrated that digital pathology is as accurate as traditional microscopy for primary diagnosis. In fact, it often enhances accuracy by enabling easier consultation with specialists and reducing variability in slide handling.

A: You need a whole slide scanner, viewing software and a management system. DigiDxDoc provides an integrated solution including affordable scanners, universal image viewers and management software that seamlessly integrates with your existing hospital systems.

A: Scanning time varies by scanner type and magnification level, typically ranging from 1-5 minutes per slide. Our scanners are optimized for reduced loading latency to maximize laboratory efficiency.

A: Yes, DigiDxDoc's solution is designed for seamless integration with existing Hospital Management Systems (HMS) and Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) through our patented cross-platform integration technology.

A: Our platform supports all major pathology image formats including .svs, .ndpi, .scn, and other vendor-specific formats, making it truly image-agnostic.

A: Key benefits include faster reporting times, enhanced diagnostic accuracy, easy access to second opinions, remote consultations, improved workflow efficiency, better slide storage and management and enabling AI-assisted diagnostics.

A: Yes, digital pathology enables multiple users to view and collaborate on the same case in real-time, facilitating consultations and education without the need to physically share slides.

A: Absolutely. Digital pathology is essential for implementing AI algorithms for cancer detection, biomarker quantification (Ki-67, ER, PR, HER2), and other automated diagnostic tools.

A: DigiDxDoc offers an affordable subscription-based model with three tiers (Essential, Professional, Enterprise) that eliminates high upfront costs and makes digital pathology accessible to facilities of all sizes.

A: ROI comes from reduced slide handling costs, faster turnaround times, decreased need for slide shipping, improved workflow efficiency and the ability to offer remote consultation services.

A: Our subscription model includes software updates, technical support, and maintenance. Additional services like implementation support, training, and storage upgrades are available as needed.

A: Yes, digital pathology has been approved by regulatory bodies including the FDA for primary diagnosis in many applications. Our platform operates in NABL-accredited laboratories with full regulatory compliance.

A: We implement robust security measures including encrypted data transmission, secure cloud storage, access controls, and compliance with healthcare data protection standards.

A: Digital slides can be stored indefinitely without degradation, unlike physical slides. Our cloud-native platform provides scalable storage solutions with easy retrieval and backup capabilities.

A: Most pathologists adapt quickly to digital viewing. We provide comprehensive training programs and ongoing support to ensure smooth adoption of the technology.

A: DigiDxDoc provides full implementation support, staff training, technical assistance and ongoing maintenance as part of our subscription packages.

A: Yes, our DigiDx Academy platform specifically supports medical education with digital pathology learning modules, virtual microscopy, and assessment tools.

A: Digital pathology streamlines workflow by eliminating slide handling, enabling remote work, facilitating faster consultations, and providing better case management and tracking.

A: Yes, digital pathology actually speeds up emergency case handling by enabling immediate access to specialists regardless of their physical location.

A: Our cloud-native architecture includes redundancy and backup systems. Additionally, physical slides remain available as a backup during any system maintenance.

A: Yes, digital pathology is rapidly becoming the standard of care globally, driven by advances in AI, telemedicine, and the need for more efficient healthcare delivery.

A: Absolutely. Our tiered subscription model and cloud-based architecture allow seamless scaling from small laboratories to large hospital networks.

A: Contact us for a consultation and 3-month pilot program. We offer qualified institutions the opportunity to experience digital pathology benefits with side-by-side comparison to traditional workflows.
