Huron Image Search for Pathology Preconference Workshop
When: Sunday, October 6, 2:30pm
Where: Pathology Visions Conference, Hyatt Regency Orlando, Bayhill 22
Join Huron Digital Pathology on October 6th for their Image Search for Pathology preconference workshop at Pathology Visions in Orlando. The workshop is designed for a broad audience interested in learning more about image search, including pathologists, data scientists, IT professionals, hospital and laboratory administrators and 3rd party vendors.
Image search – a consensus-oriented decision support platform – is poised to be an essential component of the digital pathology workflow because of its ability to connect pathologists to the vast expertise of their colleagues recorded in archives of evidently diagnosed cases. Being able to instantly search for images with similar histopathological features/patterns and then reading the associated pathology reports – concisely summarized upon request – holds incredible promise to improve the quality and speed of diagnosis and probe new relationships between disease categories that were previously unknown.
But how can image search be deployed in the real-world? How can it co-exist with scanners and workflow tools from multiple vendors, or with IT infrastructure?
At the Huron preconference workshop, Patrick Myles and Hamid Tizhoosh will present their vision for image search as a key enabler for digital pathology. Then they will dive into the nuts and bolts of deploying image search – from indexing slides through to integration with 3rd party scanners, workflow tools and IT infrastructure. Finally, they will present the results of their latest validation work using 30,000 whole slide images of 11,000 patients.
