Pathology Visions 2026

October 16–18, 2026 · San Diego

The Digital Pathology Association's annual meeting, in San Diego. We are attending to meet the labs, pathologists and vendors taking digital pathology from glass to platform.

Why we are at PV26

Pathology Visions is where the digital pathology field meets once a year: pathologists, lab leaders, researchers, IT teams and the scanner, image management and AI vendors. The 2026 meeting runs three days in San Diego under the theme "Connecting Innovation with Purpose". We go for the conversations that decide whether a digital pathology program works in practice: how the lab system, the image management system, the AI and the network underneath fit together, and how a lab proves it before going live.

Meet us at PV26

Book a time with us while we are in San Diego. Bring the questions that are hard to answer from a booth:

  • Scanner throughput and storage sizing for whole slide images, before you buy.
  • Network and storage design for image traffic between scanners, the image management system and pathologists working remotely.
  • LIS to image management integration: orders, case status and patient identity across Epic Beaker, CGM AP EASY and PathPresenter.
  • Bringing AI into sign-out: where the results show up, who reviews them and how the lab validates them.
  • Lab automation alongside digital pathology, such as Tactus Elsie.

The full program, workshops and exhibit hall are published by the Digital Pathology Association on the PV26 agenda.
