Since the digital pathology entered China, its application in clinical pathology has been deepening, and it has also shown great development potential. However, because digital pathology is still an emerging technology, both the technology itself and its related industry standards and administrative regulations have become the focus of attention of pathologists.

Under such a background, on March 6, 2016, the first Chinese Digital Pathology Summit was organized by the Pathology Committee of the Chinese Medical Association and the Cancer Pathology Committee of the Chinese Anti-Cancer Society and the Pathology Research Office of West China Hospital of Sichuan University. "Holded in Chengdu." More than 50 senior pathologists from all over the country, as well as more than 10 representatives of domestic and international digital pathology companies attended the conference.

The conference focused on several of the most high-profile issues in the industry: the development of digital pathology and direction, legal issues and information standardization, and the operating modes of fees and applications.

The participating experts presented their achievements and difficulties in the development of digital pathology in their respective regions, and made many valuable suggestions and opinions on the issues.

Among them, remote pathology is a very critical application in digital pathology. It has also been heatedly discussed in the meeting. Although many difficult pathological problems have been solved by this application, routine and freezing have also shown urgent needs. In addition, although remote pathology has helped remote areas ease the difficulties caused by the lack of pathologists, the quality control situation is also worrying. In addition to the traditional recommendations for strengthening training, there are also experts presenting the concept of quality control throughout the process. In the face of the compliance problem of digital pathology, the current implementation of multi-point practice in the country has legally guaranteed the legality of doctors engaged in remote pathological diagnosis, but further advancement to the protection of doctors’ rights in diagnosis requires more Formal laws and regulations, as well as technology and technology, such as electronic signatures, are implemented.

Although digital pathology is a global trend, it is still a new thing. Even the European and American countries that developed slightly earlier than China, some of the “industry standards” currently implemented are not complete and mature. Some experts at the conference believe that foreign experience can only be used as a reference. Chinese pathologists must combine the actual situation in China, such as from the hospital network interconnection, equipment standard intercommunication, image quality standard evaluation, software system standardization, etc. Consideration and formulation.

At the end of the morning discussion session, Professor Yan Xiuwu, director of the Institute of Pathology of the Southwest Hospital of the Third Military Medical University and director of the Pathology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, whispered the lyrics: "The most heartache of the self-respect", indicating that the development of digital pathology can no longer be The state of "solitude and self-respect" should actively solve problems and promote the development of the industry. The "First China Digital Pathology Summit" as the spring of Chinese digital pathology also shows that China's digital pathology is about to enter a new era.

In order to cooperate with the basic data accumulation of digital pathology, Huaxi Hospital's pathology research center has concentrated a number of domestic and international digital pathology scanning devices. The NanoZoomer2.0-HT device provided by Hamamatsu China is also included in the research room for basic research.
