  • The Solution

The Solution

By leveraging the latest technology and the skills and experience of ASCP members, clinicians in Sub-Saharan Africa can have affordable quality real-time diagnostics. This technology is already in use that provides seamless interaction, management and secure access to pathology and laboratory clinical multimedia, including digital whole slide images.  System workflow capabilities are designed to allow pathologists to diagnose cases in real-time with multi-level security and tracking. 

 

ASCP Digital Pathology Cloud

By leveraging PEPFAR laboratories that currently support communicable disease diagnostics like HIV, we can deliver affordable continuous efficient workflow, unmatched 24-72 hour turnaround of results, access to cloud-enabled cancer diagnostics while reaching patients who are already being screened and treated for other conditions.

The concept of providing collaboration capabilities and management from pathologists in the United States into healthcare facilities in Sub-Saharan Africa has already been proven to be effective.  This approach provides specialty-specific workflow for acquisition, access and management of patient clinical media, pictures, and data by healthcare providers in Africa while protecting patient privacy and enabling remote collaboration. 

Technology already exists that interacts, manages and provides secure access to the pathology and laboratory clinical multimedia, including digital whole slide images. 

Workflow Capabilities

The workflow capabilities are designed for easy consult management allowing pathologists to consult on cases with speed and ease, all with multi-level security and audit tracking.  Best of all, images can be integrated and accessed via a Windows app or web browser. This allows physicians and clinicians in Sub-Saharan Africa to consult with pathologists in the United States to provide a level of diagnostic cancer care for patient care that are scares or unavailable in country.

This approach delivers a dynamic image-based environment for efficient and high quality diagnostics that is effective and affordable.  The supporting hardware solution and software are easy to install and configure, and ensure security and integrity of data with compliance to existing regulations. This approach also lays the groundwork while a sustainable workforce can be built.
