Digital Versus Optical Diagnosis of Follicular Patterned Thyroid Lesions.

Objectives: To study the concordance between pathologists in the diagnosis of follicular patterned thyroid lesions using both digital and conventional optical settings.

Material And Methods: Five pathologists reviewed 50 hematoxylin and eosin-stained slides of follicular patterned thyroid lesions using both digital (the D-Sight 2.0 scanner and navigator viewer) and conventional optical instruments with washout interval time.

The Role of Telecytology in the Primary Diagnosis of Thyroid Fine-Needle Aspiration Specimens.

Introduction: The Acibadem Health Group (AHG) has been using telepathology/digital pathology stations since 2006. In 2013, the system was changed from videoconferencing to digital pathology (whole-slide imaging) utilizing 3DHISTECH scanners and software. In 2017, digital cytology started to be used for routine cytopathologic diagnosis for thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cases.
