International telecytology can improve patient care by increasing access to regional and international expertise in cytopathology. The majority of international telecytology studies published to date have been based on static telepathology platforms. Overall concordance rates for these studies ranged from 71% to 93%. This is comparable to the concordance rates published for other studies comparing diagnoses made by digital still images to reference glass slides, which vary from 80% to 95%. Static telepathology systems are relatively cheap and easy to use, and have the potential to increase access to international experts in developing countries with limited resources. In contrast, resource-rich academic and private medical centers can use whole slide digital imaging (WSI) for telecytology consultation, though few studies have been published addressing this topic. International telepathology consultation services with digital whole slide image capabilities have been established at several academic medical centers including the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) and the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), through the UCLA Center for Telepathology and Digital Pathology. In a small series of 20 telecytology cases submitted to UCLA from 2014 to 2017 (10 gynecologic and 10 fine needle aspiration cases), a meaningful diagnosis was rendered for 100% of cases, with 100% concordance between the submitting institution, versus consultation diagnosis provided by UCLA. These limited results are promising, and in the future both WSI and static telecytology consultation may have a place serving clinical needs in different practice settings.
