Article Synopsis
  • Telemedicine is rapidly evolving, but healthcare organizations have limited knowledge on developing and utilizing various telemedicine service programs, along with the factors that influence their implementation.
  • The study focuses on Zunyi City, China, analyzing how different factors impact the types of telemedicine services provided by healthcare institutions and examining their spatial and temporal development.
  • Results indicate that service pricing and patient out-of-pocket payments significantly affect providers' willingness to offer specific telemedicine services, and higher-level healthcare organizations tend to be more engaged in teleconsultation and telepathology compared to lower-level or private facilities.

Breaking Barriers: AI's Influence on Pathology and Oncology in Resource-Scarce Medical Systems.

Cancers (Basel)

December 2023

Department of Pathology, County Clinical Emergency Hospital, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, University of Oradea, 1 December Sq. No. 10, 410087 Oradea, Romania.

The application of artificial intelligence to improve the access of cancer patients to high-quality medical care is one of the goals of modern medicine. Pathology constitutes the foundation of modern oncologic treatment, and its role has expanded far beyond diagnosis into predicting treatment response and overall survival. However, the funding of pathology is often an afterthought in resource-scarce medical systems.

Background: Obtaining a diagnosis and treating pulmonary malignancies during the same anesthesia requires either an on-site pathologist or a system for remotely evaluating microscopic images. Cytology specimens are challenging to remotely assess given the need to navigate through dispersed and three-dimensional cell clusters. Remote navigation is possible using robotic telepathology, but data are limited on the ease of use of current systems, particularly for pulmonary cytology.

Context.—: Intraoperative diagnosis by frozen section is a mainstay of surgical pathology practice, providing immediate feedback to the surgical team. Despite good accuracy with modern methods, access to intraoperative surgical pathology with an appropriate turnaround time (TAT) has been a limiting factor for small or remote surgical centers, with negative impacts on cost and patient care.
