In this presentation, we will discuss how bar codes and printers work so you can print the most readable text and barcodes.
Barcoding is an evidence based "best practice" for reducing errors as well as improving productivity. In addition, barcoding opens up many new opportunities to utilize all the data you will have available. In this presentation, we will discuss how bar codes and printers work so you can print the most readable text and barcodes. Lastly, we will cover troubleshooting of printing issues we have all faced and how to determine the root cause when bar codes cannot be read or are difficult to read.

This workshop will provide perspectives on the barriers and challenges of using WSI for primary diagnosis as well as how pathology is poised to take on disruptive technologies such as deep learning and AI.
Automated whole slide imaging (WSI) scanners are now rendering diagnostic quality, high-resolution images of entire glass slides and combining these images with innovative digital pathology tools that are making it possible to integrate imaging into all aspects of pathology reporting including anatomical, clinical and molecular pathology. The recent approval of a WSI scanner for primary diagnosis by FDA in April 2017 and second one in 2019 has paved the way for the first time in the United States for starting to incorporate this exciting technology for use in primary diagnosis. This is an especially exciting time in anatomic pathology, as WSI systems are rapidly becoming an integral component of the pathology practice, and certainly will serve as a platform for innovations and advances in anatomical and clinical pathology in the future. This course will provide the attendees an ability to interact with experts in digital pathology to provide practical insights into the use of WSI for primary diagnosis. A framework of knowledge will be provided by an extended and interactive Q&A session which will serve to demystify the use of WSI for clinical applications, implementation challenges and pearls. This workshop will provide their perspectives on the barriers and challenges of using WSI for primary diagnosis as well as how pathology is poised to take on disruptive technologies such as deep learning and AI. The discussion will also cover the current challenges and what the short term and long term benefits that will be for pathology labs, particularly in the community practice setting if and when they embrace this technology.
