Talked with a pathologist colleague today and some corporate CEO mind you was talking about how once pathology goes digital, pathologists will be competing with each other for biopsies/work. Just a FYI for those considering this field.

AI + digital path = less need for pathologists (as more pathologists will be able to handle more work) and more competition between pathologists for work.

We already compete for every specimen. There is a good fixative called formalin. Makes transportation to far off locations very easy.
