A Different Approach for Digital Pathology: Lexicon-semantic Analysis of Histopathological Reports for the Assessment of their Quality

An analysis of the costs related to the processes involved in a pathological analysis of a biopsy justifies the traditional view of digital pathology. However, this traditional conception has left aside another important aspect of this process, the writing of pathological reports. The efficiency and effectiveness of this subprocess has been raised in recent years as a challenge in the field of digital pathology. This work explores in this aspect offering a system of lexical-semantic analysis to determine the usefulness of pathological reports. It is a tool that assists the pathologist in the drafting of a useful report and establishes the bases for the management of the veracity of information in the automatic generation of pathological reports.
