Register for an exciting new webinar on September 23rd at 12 PM EST/ 9 AM PST.  The webinar titled “Too Early = Too Late = Too Stupid: The right time to use image analysis in regulated pathology” is hosted by Steve Potts PhD, CEO of Flagship Biosciences, a digital pathology services firm working in preclinical toxicology and companion diagnostics.

Topic:

The computer  is a valuable pathologist tool, but not a patho-droid. In this hopefully humorous hour, you will hear why image analysis will enhance the professions of both veterinary and medical anatomic pathology and how to  use this tool effectively.

• Clinical and preclinical regulations you need to be aware of, as demystified as possible.
• How the computer thinks about image analysis, and how the most common biomarker  algorithms work.
• Is the computer lying? Practical ways to evaluate algorithm performance.
• Putting pathologists back in charge – taming the patho-droid paranoia
