Implementation and Validation of Telepathology Triage at Cancer Referral Center in Rural Rwanda

Challenges to obtaining a correct and complete diagnosis with telepathology alone included the need for immunohistochemistry, assessment of the quality of images, and the lack of images representing an entire sample. The next phase of the system will assess the effect of telepathology triage on turnaround time and the value of on-site immunohistochemistry in reducing that metric and the need for evaluation outside of telepathology.
