Send us a textLive from Pathology Visions 2025 in beautiful San Diego, I sat down with Imogen Fitt from Signify Research to explore how AI, digital pathology, and interoperability are transforming the way we diagnose cancer and deliver patient care.The conference theme, “From Pixels to Patients,” perfectly captures this year's shift — from theoretical discussions about AI to real-world implementation and measurable outcomes.We're no longer just asking “what can AI do?” — we're seeing how it's actually improving accuracy, reducing barriers, and connecting pathologists and labs worldwide.What We Discuss1️⃣ From Hype to Application This year, the buzz wasn't about AI's potential — it was about how it's being used. We highlight case studies showing how digital tools are reducing diagnostic errors, improving collaboration, and even helping smaller labs digitize faster and more affordably.2️⃣ PathPresenter's Expanding Role We dive into PathPresenter's innovative model that gives users access to digital pathology at no initial cost, opening the door for over 75,000 professionals across 62 institutions. I share why I personally use PathPresenter for teaching and how it's helping lower the barrier to entry for education, consultations, and patient care.3️⃣ New Scanning Technology and Accessibility We talk about compact scanners like Grundium's four-slide scanner and new miniature models that make digitization possible even in smaller labs. The message is clear: you don't need a massive system to start going digital.4️⃣ Collaboration and AI in Action Imogen shares updates from across Europe and Asia, including how hospitals are tackling storage, AI regulation, and workflow efficiency. We discuss emerging partnerships—Fujifilm, Voicebrook, Dolby, and others—that are making voice dictation, chat agents, and real-time AI insights part of the modern pathology cockpit.5️⃣ The Human Side of AI Adoption We also reflect on how digital pathology is changing careers and training. Younger pathologists expect digital tools as part of their workflow — and many won't settle for less. We discuss how this new generation is driving adoption and pushing institutions to modernize.My ReflectionsI still remember when digital pathology felt intimidating — when only a few people were “allowed” to touch the scanner. But today, that's changed completely.Now, we're living in an era where AI and digital pathology are not optional — they're essential. The technology has matured, and so has the mindset around it. What excites me most is seeing how collaboration and accessibility are becoming central to innovation.Key TakeawaysAI in pathology is moving from hype to practice — focused on improving patient outcomes.Accessibility matters: smaller, affordable scanners and open platforms are democratizing digital pathology.Collaboration between vendors, clinicians, and technologists is key to faster, smoother adoption.The next generation of pathologists expects — and demands — a digital-first workflow.Listen Now to Learn:How AI is reshaping cancer diagnosisThe tools driving real change in labs todayHow collaboration fuels digital transformation in pathologySupport the showGet the "Digital Pathology 101" FREE E-book and join us!

Dr. Rachel Pope explains how her sister's cancer diagnosis and a patient in Malawi asking "can you fix my vagina" opened her eyes to the massive gap in sexual health education within gynecology. As a fistula repair surgeon working in Sub-Saharan Africa for four years, Dr. Pope realized that even after successfully repairing bladder leaks, many patients couldn't have intercourse due to vaginal scar tissue yet providers never asked about sexual function. Meanwhile, her sister battling cancer was asking basic questions about intimacy that Dr. Pope, despite all her training and a fellowship, couldn't answer.These twin revelations led Dr. Pope to pursue sexual medicine education and eventually building Cleveland's first female sexual health division that spans multiple departments. Her unique background in global women's health, fistula repair, and reconstructive gynecology informs her holistic approach to sexual medicine and menopause care.The conversation also explores Dr. Pope's current research focus on perimenopause and cardiovascular health, believing this critical 10-year window before menopause holds the key to prevention rather than just treatment. She shares her proactive approach to her own perimenopause, including checking baseline testosterone levels at peak ovulation to guide future hormone therapy decisions.Highlights:Sexual function should be assessed after every pelvic surgery, not just assumedObstetric fistulas are still happening globally but were eliminated in the US once C-sections became accessible.Building a sexual medicine division works best when spanning multiple departments for true biopsychosocial care.The fellowship program accepts both urology and OBGYN applicants, with only two OBGYN programs in the country.Her work continues in Africa doing shorter trips and training local surgeons.If this episode inspired you to think differently about international women's health and sexual medicine education, help others discover this conversation by subscribing and leaving a review. Your reviews help more clinicians and patients find these discussions about comprehensive sexual health care.Connect with Dr. Pope:WebsiteInstagramXConnect with me:WebsiteInstagramYoutubeSubstack

What happens when two women who've both faced cancer sit down and share the raw truth about their journeys? In this episode, I open up about my own diagnosis of uterine cancer and the difficult decisions that followed—while my guest, Jen Delvaux, shares her experience navigating breast cancer, alongside supporting her husband through brain cancer. Together, we unpack the realities of life after diagnosis, the emotional rollercoaster of treatment, and how fear, stress, and mindset play a powerful role in healing. We dive into the controversial questions every cancer patient wrestles with: Should you remove organs at the first warning sign? What about alternative therapies? How do you decide on hormones after a hormone-positive cancer diagnosis? And can biohacks like red light therapy, oxygen training, and even nicotine patches or ivermectin really make a difference? This is a conversation about resilience, self-trust, and learning to live without fear. Whether you've personally faced cancer, love someone who has, or simply want to understand how to protect your health while still living fully, this episode will challenge the way you think about healing and prevention.

Why I Raised My Estrogen After Cancer I'm breaking down what really happens when estrogen drops, and why I chose to increase mine after a cancer diagnosis instead of avoiding it. I share my own experience with low estrogen, from skin changes to brain fog and libido loss, and explain the difference between rhythmic and steady dosing. You'll hear why estrogen isn't the enemy, how it can be one of the most powerful tools for health and longevity, and what you need to know to optimize metabolism and avoid the crash that happens when levels plummet. If you're navigating perimenopause or menopause and want a personalized approach instead of one-size-fits-all advice, this conversation will give you the clarity and direction you need.
