Abstract

Pathology clinical practice has evolved by adopting technological advancements initially regarded as potentially disruptive, such as electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and genomic sequencing. Breast pathology has a critical role as a medical domain, where the patient’s pathology diagnosis has significant implications for prognostication and treatment of diseases. The advent of digital and computational pathology has brought about significant advancements in the field, offering new possibilities for enhancing diagnostic accuracy and improving patient care. Digital slide scanning enables to conversion of glass slides into high-fidelity digital images, supporting the review of cases in a digital workflow. Digitization offers the capability to render specimen diagnoses, digital archival of patient specimens, collaboration, and telepathology. Integration of image analysis and machine learning–based systems layered atop the high-resolution digital images offers novel workflows to assist breast pathologists in their clinical, educational, and research endeavors. Decision support tools may improve the detection and classification of breast lesions and the quantification of immunohistochemical studies. Computational biomarkers may help to contribute to patient management or outcomes. Furthermore, using digital and computational pathology may increase standardization and quality assurance, especially in areas with high interobserver variability. This review explores the current landscape and possible future applications of digital and computational techniques in the field of breast pathology.
