In this symposium from the 38th European Congress of Pathology, Professor Vincenzo L’Imperio discusses his recently published research into how a green compression approach could support more sustainable AI applications in prostate pathology.

Explore how progressive image compression could help laboratories manage growing volumes of digital pathology data while supporting diagnostic quality and reducing environmental impact.

What is covered:

• The data challenge in digital pathology: Why whole slide images, which can reach several gigabytes in size, place increasing demands on laboratory storage.
• A more sustainable approach: How progressive image compression could reduce storage requirements and associated energy consumption, and what this means for diagnostic quality and AI applications in prostate pathology.
• The research in practice: How prostate biopsy slides scanned using Epredia's E1000 Dx Digital Pathology Solution were used in the study.

Presented by: 

• Professor Vincenzo L'Imperio - President of the European Society of Digital and Integrative Pathology (ESDIP) and Assistant Professor of Pathology at the University of Milano-Bicocca
