- Title
"Next-Generation" Pathology and Laboratory Medicine.
- Authors
Louis, David N.; Virgin IV, Herbert W.; Asa, Sylvia L.
- Abstract
The authors discuss how the field of pathology and laboratory medicine will change in the coming 5 to 10 years from the perspective of large, academic pathology departments. They note how the distinction between clinical and anatomic pathology will be blurred by new opportunities in the field of genome sequencing, molecular diagnostics and informatics. The authors are of the view that a transition from traditional laboratory-based pathology to pan-laboratory subspecialization is imminent.
