Episode 182: Imogen Fitt And Nathan Buchbinder – Emerging Trends In Pathology: From AI to Precision Medicine
My guests today are Imogen Fitt from Signify Research and Nathan Buchbinder from Proscia. We discuss emerging trends in pathology, including:
-
The current technology with the most significant impact in the field of pathology has been artificial intelligence (AI).
-
AI has stirred up imaginations about the future of pathology and has accelerated the timeline for seeing its impact.
-
Return on investment in digital pathology has shifted from being a challenge to becoming an opportunity that drives adoption.
-
Pathologists are not being replaced by AI but rather augmented by it to make their work easier and more efficient.
-
Precision medicine is a key emerging trend in pathology, with a focus on clinical biomarkers, companion diagnostics, and personalized treatment pathways.
-
Telepathology plays a crucial role in improving access to pathology services, especially in underserved areas and remote locations.
-
Collaboration among digital pathology companies is driven by customer demand for interoperability and seamless integration of technologies.
-
The future of pathology technology is likely to focus on precision medicine, clinical biomarkers, companion diagnostics, digital pathology storage, compression algorithms, robotics, and value-based care.
