Analysis of the impact of high-resolution monitors in digital pathology
Marcial García Rojo, Gloria Bueno · Journal of Pathology Informatics · 2015
The work from Randell et al.[1] evaluates the efficiency of pathologists when using different technologies for interpreting microscopic slides: A conventional microscope, a 24-inch 2.3-megapixel single-screen display (1920 × 1200 pixels), and a three-screen 11-megapixel display consisting of three 27-inch 3.6-megapixel displays (each 1440 × 2560 pixels). They measured time to detect areas of interest, time to diagnosis, and user confidence. With the participation of nine consultant pathologists, each of them reviewing three slides with each of the aforementioned technologies, a total number of 81 different slides were used.
