We're going to be talking about the evolving role of the pathologist in the setting of personalized medicine.
What has pathology, as a field, done well, in terms of providing tools and solutions to assist clinicians and patients in individualizing treatment options? What opportunities are there for change or improvement amidst, the massive growth and opportunity in the field of personalized medicine.
Will our expanding capabilities in image analysis and the promise of artificial intelligence enable us to create new and powerful tools to diagnose disease and guide therapy?
Have we finally turned the corner in incorporating diagnostics two large prospective randomized trials which will allow us to develop and validate powerful tools to refine our prognostic and predictive capabilities?
Does image analysis and the ability to Multiplex open up a whole new world of possibilities to create more powerful tools than we ever imagined? and what does the future hold?
Let’s find out with Dr. Anthony Magliocco on Digital Pathology Today.

Dr Magliocco also has a long and distinguished research career publishing over 200 manuscripts with more than 10,000 citations his contributions, and registering multiple patents. His experience in improving cancer diagnostics are well recognized. The majority of his work focuses on creating new diagnostic approaches for cancer patients with a goal to improve the accuracy and efficiency of treatments.
Most recently Dr Magliocco has recognized growing disparities in cancer patients ability to access high quality advanced diagnostic technology necessary for providing the accurate and necessary information that oncologists need to accurately treat patients with the latest generation of personalized cancer therapies. Dr Magliocco’s vision is to close the accessibility gap and make life saving advanced diagnostic services widely available to cancer patients and cancer treatment teams wherever they live and practice. He and his team have founded Protean BioDiagnostics to further this dream. Protean has created a unique Oncology MAPS™ precision oncology system to support the delivery of precision medicine to community centers and underserviced patients. The system includes not only the best in laboratory testing which is continuously updated, but also knowledge and data support systems to make testing utilization easy and efficient for the busy oncologist and the data portable for patients. Protean is focused on transforming laboratory diagnostics with advanced technology and already has a 100% digital pathology foundation.
