Abstract :
This paper describes an implementation of a tele-pathology system developed for a small and medium scale servicing unit. The system comprise 4 main parts; namely Image provider (server), Network (internet), Database, and client unit. A pathologist works on the client unit while the lab staffs work on slide preparation and registrations. Database preparation and software user interface are more focused in this report. The full system is expected to be helpful in the community with a shortage of pathologists.
