ESDIP Town Square Meeting
April 16, 2021 at 6 pm (CET)
“Can I trust AI in pathology?”

Dear All,

We are delighted to invite you to the ESDIP Town Square Meeting, a new series of informal events, starting on April 16, 2021, at 6:00 pm (CET) and aimed at promoting discussion around hot topics in digital and computational pathology.

Developed by the Educational Committee of ESDIP, under the supervision of Vincenzo Della Mea, from the University of Udine and Arvydas Laurinavičius from Vilnius University, this first meeting is titled “Can I trust AI in Pathology?”.




The main focus will be the role of artificial intelligence in pathology: the technology appears to be ready, but how reliable it is for the adoption in routine pathology practice?

The guests, Joe Saltz of the State University of New York at Stony Brook and Andrew Janowczyk of Case Western Reserve University, will briefly introduce their point of view about the title topic, then giving the floor to the public.

The valuable input from attendees, together with the expert views, will contribute to a better understanding of the advances as well as their possible clinical applications.

The workshop is free. You are welcome to attend, listen to the experts, and contribute with your viewpoint.To attend ESDIP Town Square Meeting, please send an email to 
admin@digitalpathologysociety.org until April 15, 2021. (Note: In case you have already submitted our registration and receive an email confirming it, please ignore this email). 

Sincerely,

Vincenzo Della Mea, Chair of the Educational Committee of ESDIP
On behalf of the Educational Committee of ESDIP

Il Laboratorio MITEL, in collaborazione con Cimtech srl e MIPOT spa, ha appena pubblicato un articolo sulla rivista JMIR Medical Informatics (IF: 3.188) che riassume gli esiti del progetto PollicIoT riguardo l’applicabilità di LoRaWAN all’ambito sociosanitario:

In sintesi: è un ottimo strumento per dispiegare rapidamente ed economicamente dispositivi IoT sanitari a casa dell’anziano o della persona fragile, purché i dispositivi non siano da usare in urgenza/emergenza o per scambiare grandi quantità di dati.

Image Analysis Training School 2019

Nottingham, 26-27 September 2019

https://www.nmpn.info/imageanalysis2019

The school returns for it’s third  year in 2019 and aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current use of image analysis in pathology diagnosis and research including practical examples

  • Address how potential problems in image analysis can be resolved
  • How digital pathology can be integrated in the work-stream

The course is suitable for Trainee and Consultant Pathologists with little or no experience of image analysis and for non-clinical scientists/computer experts (who may have some experience with digital platforms) wishing to learn more about the techniques and application of image analysis. Teaching will be delivered in the form of formal lectures and interactive work projects.
