Send a textIs AI in pathology actually improving diagnosis — or just adding complexity?In DigiPath Digest #37, we reviewed four recent publications covering AI-based biomarker quantification in glioblastoma, real-world digital workflow integration in prostate cancer, multimodal AI combining histopathology and genomics, and patient perspectives on AI in cancer diagnostics.This episode connects technical performance with something equally important: trust.Episode Highlights[00:02] Community & updates Digital Pathology 101 free PDF, upcoming patient-focused book, and global attendance.[04:07] AI-based image analysis in glioblastoma AI showed strong consistency with pathologists when quantifying Ki-67, P53, and PHH3. Significant biological correlations (Ki-67 ↔ PHH3, PHH3 ↔ P53) were detected by AI — not by manual assessment. Takeaway: computational quantification improves precision.[09:28] Real-world digital workflow + AI in prostate cancer (France) AI-pathologist concordance: • 93.2% (high probability cancer detection) • 99.0% (low probability slides) Gleason concordance: 76.6% 10% failure rate due to pre-analytical artifacts. Takeaway: infrastructure and sample quality still matter.[15:58] Multimodal AI (MARBIX framework) Combines whole slide images + immunogenomic data in a shared latent space using binary “monograms.” Performance in lung cancer: 85–89% vs 69–76% unimodal models. Takeaway: integrated data improves case retrieval and similarity reasoning.[22:13] AI-powered paper summary subscription introduced Structured summaries for busy professionals who want more than abstracts.[26:17] Patient roundtable on AI in pathology (Belgium) Patients expect: • Better accuracy • Faster turnaround • Stronger collaborationTrust is high when: • Algorithms use diverse datasets • Pathologists retain final responsibilityClinical validity mattered more than full algorithm transparency. Privacy concerns focused more on insurer misuse than cloud transfer.Key TakeawaysAI improves biomarker precision in glioblastoma.Digital pathology implementation works — but pre-analytics can limit AI performance.Multimodal AI represents the next meaningful step in precision diagnostics.Patients are not afraid of AI — they want validation, oversight, and governance.Human–AI collaboration remains central.If you're working in digital pathology, computational pathology, or precision oncology, this episode connects evidence, implementation, and patient perspective.Support the showGet the "Digital Pathology 101" FREE E-book and join us!
Send a textWhat actually needs to be in place before digital pathology can replace the microscope?In this episode of DigiPath Digest, I walk through the 2026 Polish Society of Pathologists guidelines and translate them into practical steps for real pathology labs. This isn't theory. It's about hardware fidelity, data integrity, validation, and AI integration — and what each of these actually requires in daily workflow.We talk about scanner resolution standards (≤0.26 μm per pixel), 4K monitor calibration, visually lossless compression (20:1), scalable storage, pathologist-driven validation, and what “non-inferiority” truly means.Digital pathology is not just a change of medium. It's an operational shift.Episode Highlights[00:02] Community & growth 1,600+ new newsletter subscribers, 10,000+ Facebook members, and free Digital Pathology 101 book access.[07:20] The 4 pillars of adoption Hardware fidelity · Data integrity · Clinical validation · Future integration.[08:30] Hardware requirements 40x equivalent scanning (≤0.26 μm/px), 4K monitors, >300 cd/m² luminance, 10-bit color depth.[12:00] Workflow & throughput 200–300 slides/day per scanner, automated focus control, urgent case prioritization.[17:25] Storage & archiving ~1 GB per slide. Active archive (6–24 months). Long-term retention (10–20 years). GDPR compliance & TLS encryption.[23:09] Validation philosophy Pathologist-centered validation. Two phases: • Familiarization (~20 retrospective cases) • Dual review with discrepancy tracking Goal: digital must be non-inferior to glass.[29:03] AI in digital pathology AI supports quantification (Ki-67, HER2, ER/PR, PD-L1), tumor detection, and future multimodal predictions — but pathologists remain central.[33:26] Intraoperative telepathology

Kristi Noem makes alarming statements about DHS controlling elections and ensuring the "right people" vote and the "right leaders" are elected during a press conference in Arizona promoting the SAVE Act voter ID requirements. The Department of Homeland Security Secretary faces backlash from both Democrats and Republicans questioning whether government officials should determine who votes and who leads.Marjorie Taylor Greene appears on a podcast with Owen Shroyer revealing Trump fought harder than anyone to prevent the Epstein files from being released. Greene explains that Trump calling the Epstein transparency efforts a hoax was his biggest political miscalculation. She details how Trump only signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act because it became a massive political problem, and describes Attorney General Pam Bondi as enabling the cover up since last March. Greene notes Trump's name appears over 1 million times in the 3 million pages released so far.White House Communications Director Steven Chung calls Representatives Roana and Thomas Massie "retards" for authoring the Epstein Files Transparency Act, claiming they ruined innocent lives. Massie responds by posting he is not suicidal, detailing his healthy lifestyle, good car brakes, and swimming ability. Marjorie Taylor Greene backs up Massie's statement, defending her colleague against potential threats.Pathologist Dr. Michael Boden who observed Jeffrey Epstein's autopsy challenges the official suicide ruling, stating the injuries are more consistent with homicidal strangulation than hanging. Boden notes three neck fractures are extremely rare in suicide cases and that critical evidence was mishandled at the crime scene.

Breaking today: The Franklin County Coroner has released the full autopsy reports for Spencer and Monique Tepe, the Columbus couple found shot to death in their Weinland Park home on December 30th. The findings are devastating. Spencer sustained seven gunshot wounds. Monique sustained nine. All sixteen wounds were to their upper bodies. Both had defensive injuries to their hands and arms — evidence they saw the attack coming and tried to fight back.The coroner determined both victims died within "seconds to minutes" of being shot. Pathologists recovered bullets described as "large caliber" from their bodies. The wound patterns — front-to-back and back-to-front trajectories — indicate both victims moved during the shooting. They tried to get away. The shooter kept firing until the magazine was empty.Michael McKee, Monique's ex-husband, has been charged with two counts of aggravated murder and has pleaded not guilty. Court documents allege he stalked the couple for weeks before the killings, entered their home while they attended the Big Ten Championship game, and used stolen license plates on the vehicle seen near their residence. Witnesses told police McKee had threatened Monique for years after their 2017 divorce, telling her he could "kill her at any time" and that she would "always be his wife."Today we break down what the autopsy reveals about the crime — and what the documented behavior pattern reveals about the psychology of the man accused of committing it.#TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #TepeAutopsy #TrueCrimeToday #ColumbusOhio #AggravatedMurder #DomesticViolence #BreakingNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Poster Title: The High Cost of Understaffing: A Case Study in Surgical Pathology Consequences Authors: Emily Nangano, MS, PA(ASCP)cm; Gillian Bass; Rob Terranova Abstract: Laboratories are the diagnostic backbone of healthcare, yet staffing decisions are often driven by budget constraints rather than operational needs. This case study examines the real-world consequences of delayed staffing action within the anatomic pathology department at a large academic medical center. Faced with a predicted shortfall in grossing coverage due to reduced resident support and unchanged PA staffing levels, institutional leadership opted against proactive hiring. As a result, grossing FTEs fell from 6.5 to 3.5, and histology staffing experienced a drop to 3 technicians from the usual 9 due to attrition and burnout. This staffing collapse led to turnaround time delays of up to 6–8 weeks and forced the lab to outsource specimen processing. Over the following seven months, the institution spent nearly $4 million on reference lab services. Staff morale declined sharply, clinician trust eroded, and senior PAs and histotechs resigned. Even after additional staff were hired, it took more than a year to stabilize operations. This poster presents supporting data, including FTE changes, outsourcing costs, and turnaround time impacts. It also explores how temporary, qualified locum tenens staffing solutions—such as Pathologists' Assistants and histotechnologists, and cytologists—can help bridge coverage gaps and prevent costly disruptions. Ultimately, this case underscores the critical importance of timely, proactive staffing strategies. The hidden costs of under-resourcing the laboratory go beyond dollars—they affect staff well-being, institutional reputation, and patient care outcomes.

Ever wondered why speech pathologists are unsung heroes in the world of dyslexia? In this eye-opening episode of the Dear Dyslexic Podcast, we dive deep into the fundamentals of dyslexia, bust myths about assessments, and explore how early intervention can transform lives—plus, practical tips for navigating co-occurring challenges like ADHD and dysgraphia. Joining us is Elise Cassidy, a passionate speech pathologist and founder of Code Read Network, a leading organization dedicated to raising dyslexia awareness in Australia. With over 30 years of experience in literacy and language development, Elise specializes in supporting children and adults with dyslexia, speech sound disorders, and related learning difficulties. She's driven campaigns like the iconic "Light Up Red for Dyslexia" initiative, which has illuminated landmarks across the country to spotlight dyslexia awareness month, and runs Little Voices, a clinic focused on empowering young people with dyslexia through tailored interventions, assistive technology, and multidisciplinary approaches. Elise unpacks the core of dyslexia, explaining how it stems from phonological processing and speech sound system challenges—far beyond just "speech" as many assume. We explore the pivotal role of speech pathologists in early identification, intervention, and assessments, including why they're essential for children and adults alike. The conversation tackles the barriers to diagnosis in Australia, such as high costs and limited access, and advocates for accessible screening tools like those from Read3. Elise shares insights on co-occurring conditions like ADHD, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia, offering strategies for executive functioning support, assistive technology (from text-to-speech to AI tools), and building "super glue" memory through repetition.

Are you excessively tired with your hair falling out, nails always breaking, brain often foggy or sometimes, despite having youth on your side, maybe forgetting how to form a sentence? These are amongst the symptoms of iron deficiency, often underdiagnosed. Nuala McGovern will be speaking to Dr Sue Pavord, Consultant Haematologist and President of the British Society for Haematology, and freelance journalist Rose Stokes.The Royal College of Pathologists say that a shortage of consultants means that "1 in 5 families are now waiting 6 months or more, and some longer than 12 months" for post mortems. The 'paediatric and perinatal pathology workforce' report said there were no paediatric or perinatal pathology consultants in the South West, the Midlands or Northern Ireland. Dr Clair Evans, the chair of the college's advisory committee - a Consultant Paediatric and Perinatal pathologist explains the situation further. At lunchtime on Wednesday the Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves, will unveil her much anticipated second budget. How could this budget affect the lives of women in 2026? We're joined by the BBC's Cost of Living correspondent Colletta Smith, to talk us through what we might see in the red briefcase on Wednesday. A self-portrait by Frida Kahlo has just sold for $55 million in New York. It is the highest price ever paid for a work by a female artist. To illustrate the magnitude of the difference, a painting by Klimt was also sold recently for $236m. Professor Renee Adams is a professor of finance at Oxford Saïd business school and researches the role of gender in the art market, where women's works generally achieve much lower values. She explains why and what needs to change. As part of the BBC 2 Civilisations series, tonight's programme looks at the rise and fall of the Aztec Empire and the part that a young woman played in its demise. She was called Malintzin and acted as translator at the momentous first meeting in 1519 between Montezuma, the ruler of the vast Aztec Empire, and the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés. To find out more about Malintzin and her role in Mexican history and culture Nuala is joined by Dr Elizabeth Baquedano, from the Institute of Archaeology at University College London and Dr Jessica Fernández de Lara Harada from the University of Oxford.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Kirsty Starkey

Send us a textLive from Pathology Visions 2025 in San Diego, I share highlights from Day 2 of the world's leading digital pathology conference, where experts explored how AI, empathy, and training are shaping the next generation of pathologists.This episode captures the shift from technology as a tool to technology as a bridge — helping us connect with patients in more meaningful ways.What I Talk About1️⃣ From Pixels to Patients We've built the infrastructure; now it's about applying it. Pathology is no longer just digital — it's personal, accessible, and human-centered.2️⃣ Dr. Leah Lijah Joseph's Keynote — Pathologists as Patients Dr. Joseph, a cancer pathologist and survivor, shared her journey from diagnosing others to understanding her own slides. She now runs a patient pathology clinic, empowering people to see and learn from their own tissue samples.3️⃣ The Power of Visualization Dr. Joseph described how visualization and mental imagery support healing — a reminder that empathy and imagination can coexist with precision science.4️⃣ AI & Imaging Innovation From Google Research's JPEG AXL format reducing file size by 30%, to discussions on color fidelity with DICOM's David Clooney, we explored how innovation and accuracy must move hand-in-hand.5️⃣ Cytology Goes Digital With Hologic's Genius Digital Diagnostic and AIXMed's AI-assisted QC, cytology is entering a new era — faster, more accurate, and fully traceable through 100% AI quality control.6️⃣ The Human Side of AI I also share a personal story about my mother's medical experience — and how even with all the tech, empathy remains the missing link. AI can't replace compassion, but it can help us focus on it by automating what takes time away from patients.Key TakeawaysAI is enhancing accuracy and accessibility in diagnostics.Pathologists are taking on more patient-facing roles.Cytology digitization is revolutionizing quality and speed.Innovation must balance efficiency with color and data integrity.Empathy and communication will always define great medicine.I hope this episode helps you see how AI, empathy, and education are shaping the next era of diagnostics.Let's continue building the bridge from pixels to patients, one slide at a time.

On a cold December evening in Surrey, England, two separate callers reported the same terrifying sight: headlights swerving off the busy A3 road and disappearing into the trees. Convinced they'd just witnessed a crash, police raced to the scene — but the road was empty, the barriers intact, and no fresh tire marks scarred the embankment. Still, the officers pressed on. Venturing deep into the undergrowth, they uncovered a nightmare: a badly wrecked car, hidden from view and overgrown by brush. The vehicle's battery was long dead, its headlights impossible to ignite. And nearby, they made a darker discovery — the decomposed skeletal remains of a man. The car belonged to a Londoner reported missing nearly a year earlier, in July of 2002. Dental records confirmed the bones were his. Pathologists estimated he'd been dead for months, killed in what looked like a crash no one had ever seen… until that December night. But how could members of the public report headlights veering off the road that very evening, when the man and his vehicle had been lost for almost a year? Did they witness a ghostly replay — a spectral “residual haunting” of the fatal crash, replaying itself to demand discovery? Or was it a strange twist of fate, coincidence aligning the living with the dead? #TrueGhostStory #Paranormal #HauntedUK #GhostlyReplay #PhantomCrash #PoliceMystery #CreepyStories #UnsolvedMystery #GhostStoriesOnline #RealHaunting Love real ghost stories?

For part two of our discussion with Charles Kochel, we almost totally skipped over the discussion of faith mentioned at the end of part one. Instead, we went down a variety of rabbit holes, from tariffs to Case Knives to success to patriotism. In other words, it was a true campfire conversation. Give it a listen, it's a good one. #tariffs #globalization #pocketknife #dirt #dharma #faith
The American Academy of Pediatrics released new vaccine recommendations that directly oppose guidance from the HHS – insisting on COVID-19 vaccinations in babies as young as 6 months. Pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole & Dr. Kelly Victory reveal how the AAP has been captured by Big Pharma interests. The organization's top donors, listed on their own website, are Merck, Moderna, Pfizer, and Sanofi: the 4 pharma companies that “make virtually every vaccine on the CDC recommended childhood vaccine schedule.” HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. issued a stern warning in response: “AAP should also be candid with doctors and hospitals that recommendations that diverge from the CDC's official list are not shielded from liability under the 1986 Vaccine Injury Act.” Dr. Ryan Cole is a board-certified pathologist trained at Mayo Clinic with subspecialty in dermatopathology from Columbia University. He holds a PhD in virology and immunology and directed a medical laboratory in Idaho for 20 years. He testifies globally on Covid policy and medical freedom. Follow at https://x.com/drcole12 Dr. Kelly Victory is Chief of Emergency & Disaster Medicine at The Wellness Company.

I sit down with Dr Magali Svrcek, Professor of Pathology at the University of Sorbonne in Paris, and she discusses her role as a GI Pathologist. Dr Svrcek discusses Microsatellite Instability, digital tools and Immunohistochemistry. Dr Svrcek wrote her script in English, so I in turn wrote my introduction and closing en Francais. I hope my French is ok. With fewer Pathologists, especially internationally, digital pathology could be a solution. In working with Owkin, the collaboration, MsIntuit, an AI diagnostic tool to detect MSI, and is the first to be CE marked. Colorectal cancer is experiencing an increase internationally as western lifestyle spreads. African countries, especially sub-Saharan African countries will not have the tools or infrastructure to work with this increase. Developing a network of experts using digital pathology could mitigate some of these issues.

"It hit me, as I was looking at the blood of Jesus, this is something that just leaves you with a sense of awe! And I'm thinking, where do I fit in?" ---------- Hi, Trapper Jack, here! I just recently learned that one of my fellow parishioners at church, Dr. John Judge, is a pathologist who played a role in the last major investigation of the Shroud of Turin, believed by millions to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ. He actually examined the blood—type AB—up close! How did he get selected for this once-in-a-lifetime study? What did he see? And what mysteries about the shroud still leave even the experts scratching their heads? This is a fascinating, humbling conversation with someone who was on the front line to uncover whose body was wrapped in that ancient cloth. ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

Drs. Sanam Loghavi and Amer Zeidan delve into the history behind the recent classification split between the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Consensus Classification (ICC) for myeloid and lymphoid malignancies, and how a few years of minor disagreement have culminated in a unified system. They explore the critical differences in how myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms are now categorized, what this alignment means for pathologists, oncologists, regulators, and patients, when the new classification will take effect, and how it is expected to influence research, diagnosis, and clinical care.
