ESO-ESP Digital Pathology Seminar

Co-Chairs: C. Eloy, PT - G. Pruneri, IT 

The ESO-ESP Digital Pathology Seminar is an event devoted to physicians, specifically to pathologists and oncologists, focusing on the digital transformation of the pathology laboratories and consequent benefits. Here, examples of digital workflow implementation will be demonstrated, as well as the potentialities of image analysis tools in the setting of biomarkers and, broadly, in cancer models.
