Abstract
IntroductionRemote diagnosis of frozen sections is an important asset for hospitals that do not have full-time pathologists. Ongoing advances in information technology are constantly being incorporated and we have used real time high-definition video. Material and methodsOur microscope was connected to a video camera with a 1080p resolution and its signal sent to the computer where OBS software encoded and transmitted video streams to YouTube and Twitch distribution platforms. ResultsThe high-quality image thus achieved allows an accurate, remote evaluation of frozen sections. Access through web pages allows them to be reviewed anywhere from any device with an Internet connection. DiscussionRemote intraoperative diagnosis is a challenge for pathologists and image quality is a critical requirement for its implementation, which can be solved by video streaming technology. The proper training of technicians is essential. This system can also be applied to many other areas of pathology, such as teaching and consultation.
