That was the headline I received today in my newsletter from Dark Daily, the newsletter of the Dark Report, a business and management organization for pathology and clinical laboratories. I was surprised to see this heading today, but in a good way. I typically think pathology can be a little slow to adopt new technology and I found this encouraging. Integrating lab data and anatomic path reports into a system that plays nice with iPad integration helps the whole medical system embrace and utilize mobile technology to its advantage. Looking forward, lack of a mobile strategy may make it harder to market your services to clinicians for diagnostic fields like pathology and radiology.

I would love to see this start happening while I was still in residency.
