Usher in Digital Pathology
Digital technology has comprehensively transformed the diagnostic methods of medical pathology, upgrading the old model that has, for centuries , used microscopes as the primary tool of observation.
Now, digital pathology — already widespread in pathology diagnosis, pathology Artificial Intelligence (AI), multi-modal diagnosis, and remote pathology consultation and teaching — is playing an important role in resolving a variety of issues that have arisen in the age of data, from obstacles to information sharing, to the uneven distribution of resources and expertise.
That's because digital pathology is equipped to handle large data volumes, with the annual pathological data increment of grade-A tertiary hospitals standing at1–3 PB each year: an annual growth rate of 20–30%.
Digital tools also foster full-service integration, integrating service and full-process systems, implementing CNAS management digitalization. Long-term data storage needs are also addressed, given that pathological data needs to be retained for over 15 or even 30 years. Finally, digital pathology overcomes data sharing issues, where diverse sources can lead to scattered data.
Indeed, digital pathology is now enabling real-time information transfer, upgrading diagnostic capabilities, and improving medical care overall. It addresses the slow image reading and freezing issues of conventional methods, which struggle to handle the size of slide files, ranging from 1–3 GB.

High Performance
Hybrid loads greatly improve performance: 1000 slices can be viewed in 1s. Lossless multi-protocol interworking supports copy-free data sharing of multiple services: the results of scientific research can be applied and put into practical use.
Low TCO
Pathological data coding improves storage utilization by more than 30%. High-ratio Erasure Coding (EC) improves disk space utilization by over 90%. And high-density hardware cuts required equipment room space by 60% or more.
Easy Sharing
The data of multiple services is unified and stored in a converged imaging resource pool. EB-level scalability enables performance to increase linearly with capacity expansion. Automatic tiering of hot, warm, and cold data meets the demands of ongoing pathological data growth, with multi-service data sharing and long-term storage.
