Diagnostic reproducibility and accuracy in cytology and histology are major issues in oncologic screening programs (cervix, breast and colorectal cancer). Slides standard set represents the most used method to compare diagnostic proficiency. Emilia-Romagna Region (Italy) realized a software to manage cytological and histological whole-slides digital images building, a picture case storage and communication system (PACS) among pathologists in Emilia-Romagna Region and realizing an e-learning platform (Docebo) for applicants: slides were “a teaching system” for a retraining program. Collected and catalogued cases in an on-line digital archive of slides, enact as database for a casistic atlas online.
