A man in his early 60s with a past medical history of essential thrombocythemia, diagnosed on bone marrow biopsy 20 years prior and treated with anagrelide and aspirin presented to his hematologist for routine blood work. 🧵
@Pathologists That’s not the point… the point is why arbitrarily make it harder to fax results, when faxing is the easiest method for busy #pathologists?
Join us at #PathVisions18 as Jeffrey Fine will discusses AI's impact and how it will keep our methods relevant into the future.

Lots of folks misunderstand the role of automation in medicine…but if done right it frees doctors to focus on the executive decisions that only they can make. Paperwork and mouse clicking are for the birds! (Referring to @rml52 and his #pigeonpathologists ) https://t.co/7c2CwDVCRs
Structured data in #pathology reports are a prerequisite for computer assisted diagnosis for #pathologists (pCAD). Machine readable, machine writable, and differently displayed data depending on audience! Great talk by @rmoldwin at #PISummit18#pathologyinformatics
On an NIH study section. Propose to reduce all reviews to haiku to save time and concentrate the mind. Like:
The theory is fine
Investigators top-notch
Too bad it won’t work
“Beyond WSI: New Frontiers in Pathology Imaging” by Dr Fine @JFineMD
Cool newer imaging modalities to watch out:
-Optical coherence tomography(OCT) #eyepath
-Reflectance confocal microscopy(RCM) #dermpath
-Microscopy by UV excitation(MUSE)
