Mayo Clinic has invested in digitizing its pathology practice and by scanning its extensive archive of pathology slides, as well as prospectively scanning pathology slides from current patients. To date, Mayo Clinic Digital Pathology has leveraged 20 million digital slide images linked to 10 million patient records that incorporate treatments, medications, imaging, clinical notes, genomic data and more.
Mayo Clinic's de-identified clinical data and its Platform architecture, combined with technical expertise and resources of Nvidia, are powering the transformation. To improve performance and scalability of generative AI in pathology, Mayo Clinic also is collaborating with Aignostics, which builds AI models for digital solutions in precision medicine.
The development of Mayo Clinic Digital Pathology has been a planned process over many years. The pathology platform takes advantage of the portfolios of Mayo Clinic Platform, a global network that drives digital innovation around diagnosis, treatment and operational improvements worldwide, and Mayo Clinic Laboratories, which provides advanced testing and pathology services for healthcare organizations worldwide.
