We are working to transform and convert the pathology clinical workflow in NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde to a fully digital pathology service. This is one in which all the histology glass slides produced by the department are digitised to Whole Slide Images (WSI) in a glass slide scanner.

The key objectives of this project are:

• Full integration & deployment of Philips glass slide scanning equipment
• Expansion of local data storage to accommodate digital transition
• Training of pathology laboratory technicians in scanner operation
• Redesign of laboratory workflow for digital pathology
• Training and validation for pathologists in digital pathology reporting
• Integration of digital pathology into pathology trainees training program

Work Package Leader:   NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde

Contributing Partners:   Philips
