The Pathology News team visited Region Skåne, Lund, Sweden in March 2026. During our time in Lund we discussed why they made the move to digital, their journey, the decisions that shaped that journey, and the challenges they encountered along the way.

The four medical centres that make up Region Skåne represent one of the most advanced digital pathology implementations in Europe. Serving a large regional healthcare system, the programme has transformed not just how pathology is practiced in Sweden but on an international level  as well, leading by example.

The Pathology News team is proud to bring the Region Skåne showcase to our readership. We hope it serves as a valuable resource for labs looking to strengthen their histopathology workflows, digital or otherwise, and for those interested in how pathology can be advanced in real-world practice.
