Digital pathology is a dynamic, image-based environment that enables the acquisition, management and interpretation of pathology information generated from a digitized glass slide. Digital pathology is rapidly gaining momentum as a proven and essential technology that is helping to reduce laboratory expenses, improve operational efficiency, enhance productivity, and improve treatment decisions and

patient care. It is used worldwide in drug development, reference lab, hospital, and academic medical center settings. Applications include education, research, image analysis, archival and retrieval, LIS/LIMS integration, secondary consultations, and virtual slide sharing.

Join us for the next installment of the Digital Anatomic Pathology Academy (DAPA) Grand Rounds series as we continue to bring together the global pathology community for interactive, case-based learning and discussion.

🗓️ DAPA Grand Rounds Session 6
📅 August 31, 2026
🕚 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM ET

This session will feature “Navigating the Diagnostic Challenges in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: Pitfalls and Mimics.” Through this session, participants will explore the complexities of diagnosing Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), including key diagnostic features that distinguish Ulcerative Colitis from Crohn’s Disease, common deviations from classical presentations, and mimics that can lead to misdiagnosis.

Attendees will also gain practical guidance for developing comprehensive pathology reports and actionable differential diagnoses that strengthen clinical communication and support optimal patient care.

The Digital Pathology Association was proud to participate in the 24th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society Digital Pathology ( ), held August 20–22 in Nagasaki City, Japan.

This year’s theme, “For the Patients Behind the Slide,” served as an important reminder of what ultimately drives innovation in digital pathology: improving the quality, accessibility and impact of patient care. The meeting brought together experts across pathology, laboratory science, technology and industry to explore the continued advancement of digital pathology and AI, from emerging research to real-world clinical applications.

DPA values opportunities to connect with the global digital pathology community, exchange knowledge and strengthen collaborations that help move our field forward responsibly and with patients at the center.

Thank you to JSDP for creating a meaningful forum for education, innovation and international collaboration. is up next!

As AI adoption in pathology accelerates, one question is becoming increasingly important: Is your AI truly ready for routine clinical use?

A recent feature in The Pathologist highlights new Digital Pathology Association recommendations designed to help laboratories validate and implement AI safely, reliably and consistently. The guidance emphasizes separate validation of scanners and AI algorithms, strong quality control, pathologist oversight and a risk-based approach to implementation.

The goal: create a practical pathway for responsible AI adoption while supporting high-quality, consistent patient care.
