February 2026—Prepared with expert insight from Anil Parwani, MD, PhD; Scott Hammond; and Melinda Schumacher, MD, Grundium’s white paper describes, from a pathologist’s perspective, how compact WSI systems can shorten consult turnaround times and reduce variability, improve access to subspecialty review without adding travel or courier burden, enhance community pathologists’ professional satisfaction and confidence, support scalable, secure, and validated workflows and lay the foundation for AI and advanced analytics as digital adoption grows. Download the white paper here.

Pathology plays a critical role in cancer care, encompassing the development of new treatments, diagnosis, staging, grading of disease, and clinical decision-making. While histopathological slides of tissue biopsies using hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining remain central to this process, the rise of precision medicine testing is placing greater demands on pathology labs. Health care organizations globally are grappling with ways to address these challenges, mainly due to the declining number of individuals choosing pathology as a specialty.

Xifin released a white paper titled “The Executive’s Guide to Molecular Diagnostic Market-Share Expansion: Critical Success Factors for Maximizing Revenue, Patient Access, and Physician Engagement.” Authors Kyle Fetter, chief operating officer, and Harley Ross, chief commercial officer, offer practical approaches, process enhancements, and payor strategies essential to growing novel diagnostic market share through proactive, purposeful, and technologically enabled engagements with patients, physicians, and payors.
