“AI in Pathology Isn’t Coming — It’s Already Here. Are You Ready?”
From confusion to clarity — that’s what this episode is all about. I sat down with Drs. Liron Pantanowitz, Hooman Rashidi, and Matthew Hanna to dissect one of the most important and comprehensive AI-in-pathology resources ever created: the 7-part Modern Pathology series from UPMC’s Computational Pathology & AI Center of Excellence (CPAiCE). This isn’t just another opinion piece — it's your complete guide to understanding, implementing, and navigating AI in pathology with real-world insights and a global lens.
Together, we discuss:
- Why pathologists and computer scientists are often lost in translation
- How AI bias, regulation, and ethics are being addressed — globally
- What it really takes to operationalize AI in patient care today
If you’ve ever asked, “Where do I even start with AI in pathology?” — this is your answer.
