Introduction. Pathology plays an essential and important role in diagnostic and choosing patients’ management strategies. The aim of our analytical article is to review opportunities of digital technologies applying to pathology with a focus on converges with clinical disciplines.

Materials and methods. The search was conducted on Medline and Pubmed database and websites of laboratory equipment developers.

Results. The emergence of a new direction – ‘digital pathology’, underlines a high interest of professional society in this theme. Nowadays there are enough solutions for each part of pathological workflow which provides development of fully digitalized pathological laboratories. In this article we present opportunities and perspectives of business-process organization from statements of objectives for pathologist, tissue collection, laboratory study to multidisciplinary analysis for further patients’ management based on opportunities of information technologies.

Conclusion. Digital pathology is a transfer of all pathological routine workflow on digital platform which allows to unite efforts of clinicians, pathologists, public health organizers and patients. Separated blocks, which should constitute a united digital pathological platform, already exist and effort and time are required for full consolidation of all stages of pathological research.
