Abstract: A digital pathology system comprising an AI processing module configured to invoke an instance of an AI processing application for processing image data from a histological image and an application module configured to invoke an instance of an application operable to perform an image processing task on a histological image associated with a patient record, wherein the image processing task includes an AI element. The application creates processing jobs to handle the AI elements of its task which are handled by the AI processing module. The AI processing module may be a CNN that processes a histological image to identify tumors by classifying image pixels into one of multiple tissue classes of tumorous or non-tumorous tissue. A test ordering module automatically determines based on identified tissue classes whether additional tests should be performed on the tissue sample. For each additional test, an order is automatically created and submitted.
