Swedish PACS firm Sectra has created an interface to link its digital pathology system to Palga U-DPS's pathology laboratory application within the nationwide network and registry of histopathology and cytopathology in the Netherlands.
This technology will allow pathologists to work digitally with histology slides and enhance workflow as part of the network's strategy to improve cancer care.
The interface was created as part of a strong cooperation with Deutsche Telekom Healthcare Solutions in the Netherlands.
European and Scandinavian pathology departments are in the process of digitizing their work, but so far only a few hospitals have implemented full-scale digital pathology technologies.
