Innovations In Histopathology

There has always been pressure on the Histology Lab to do more with less money, less people and less time. Automation in Histology has somewhat stalled over the past few years and is difficult to implement. Automation is only a multi-disciplinary process to integrate manufactured machinery and software to perform manual tasks that will allow the lab to capitalize on technology that will provide new and improved processes, increased quality and, most importantly, improved patient safety. The continued evolution of innovation in Histology, both sustaining and disruptive, has taken us from inferior processes to replacement with superior processes
