Background

Quality Control

The quality control of pathology diagnosis has been attached to greater importance than ever before. Compared with other departments, the workflow of the pathology department is more complex and requires more human intervention. The pathology information management system has become quite necessary to accurately manage workflow data, reduce human error, improve work efficiency, and improve the management of the pathology department.

Digitization of medical information

Nowadays, hospitals have a high demand for medical information digitization, including communication, data management, regional medical integration, and remote consultation.

Medical information management

However, the information digitization of the pathology department in China develops quite slowly. And with the rapid development of digital pathology, the information digitization requirement of the pathology department has changed from simple information transmission and recording to comprehensive information management. And a large number of diagnosis cases need more space to be stored intelligently.
