We’re going to learn about PathPresenter. What was the unmet need that facilitated its creation. One of the features of digital pathology particularly connectivity among and between pathologists is democratizing access to care , which can mean making the benefits of surgical pathology review available to underserved populations and also making expertise in diagnostics available to fellow pathologists.

Many pathologists present cases to tumor board or other multidisciplinary conferences. What challenges and opportunities does this create? And how will pathology education change with increased connectivity and on-demand access to digitally archived images?
