Did you know that pathology slide colors can be represented in different ways by different technologies?

The digital pathology chain uses a series of components to digitize and visualize physical specimen slides. Especially your scanner, viewing software and monitor impact the way you as a pathologist perceive the colors that your slide holds.

In this webinar, you will learn how color works in a whole slide imaging workflow. We’ll also help you understand how you can ensure qualitative and consistent color representation in your lab or medical organization.

After following this webinar, you will have a good understanding of:

  • Color characteristics of digital slides and color gamut capabilities of scanners and displays 

  • Color variability in the whole slide imaging chain

  • The importance of displays with high-accuracy color rendering

  • The impact of color variability on accuracy of diagnosis and the reliability of AI algorithms

  • Color management tools, such as algorithms for color calibration and QA tests
