In this Ask a Pathologist Podcast episode, host James Thackeray speaks with Dr. Hillel Kahane, a board-certified uropathologist with over 30 years of experience, having personally signed out more than 1 million prostate core needle biopsies. As co-founder of StarPath Inc., he leverages AI with extensive expertise.

Dr. Kahane highlights game-changing tools in his practice:
- Pre-analytical Innovations: Lumea's BxBoard™ and BxChip™ allow more cores per slide, ensuring linear, oriented core presentation. This dramatically boosts productivity and has significantly increased his cancer detection rate.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI): Current AI algorithms are robust at tumor detection, serving as a crucial "second set of eyes" and a valuable QA/QC tool. He envisions AI eventually generating reports, and believes it will be essential for tapping into vast, unfathomable information in digitized slides.
- Digital Pathology for Workflow & Care: Digital platforms offer immense lifestyle flexibility, allowing sign-out from anywhere. They also enable real-time consultations with colleagues, drastically streamlining second opinions and improving patient care.
Dr. Kahane encourages all pathologists to "take the leap" into digital pathology, emphasizing its vital role in the future of the field.
