In recent decades, the major scientific advances in oncology have complexified anatomic pathology practice. Collaboration with local and national pathologists is essential for ensuring a high-quality diagnosis. Anatomic pathology is undergoing a digital revolution that implements whole slide imaging in routine pathologic diagnosis. Digital pathology improves diagnostic efficiency, allows remote peer review and consultations (telepathology), and enables the use of artificial intelligence. The implementation of digital pathology is of particular interest in isolated territories, facilitating access to expertise and therefore to specialized diagnosis. This review discusses the impact of digital pathology implementation in French overseas territories, particularly in Reunion Island.
