Our group has transformed its surgical pathology practice in that the entire service is now digital with the exception of Hematopathogy.  Our system conforms to the CAP and Federal guidelines with ample storage for both clinical and research specimens.  This has allowed us to practice a decentralized and redistributed practice of medicine resulting in pathologist and operation efficiency gains without sacrificing diagnostic quality. Time zones and physical locations are no longer limiting factors for our academically driven dedication to patient care.
