Our guest is Esther Abels, Chief Clinical Officer and Chief Regulatory Officer at Visiopharm, as well as the president-elect of the Digital Pathology Association.

Esther also leads the regulatory and standards task force at the DPA with a focus on FDA collaborations to drive regulatory and standard classifications for interoperability and computational pathology in the field of digital pathology.

We're going to be talking about standardization in digital pathology - not only in preanalytical factors such as fixation and staining - but also in the interpretive or analytic component, as well which is becoming increasingly important to ensure optimal diagnostic results for patients and incorporation of digital pathology data into diagnostic and drug discovery programs.

We discuss regulation. What are some misconceptions about regulation how can we use regulation as a tool to protect patients and better develop and provide products and services? And how can we partner with regulators to help advance the science.

What is the DPA working on now and what is their long-term vision for the future of the field? The annual meeting of the Digital Pathology Association, Pathology Visions is going to be held this October in Las Vegas.
