Digital Diagnostic Cytopathology Interpretive EQA

Taking part in the Diagnostic Cytopathology Interpretive EQA is not compulsory but demonstrates good practice and a willingness to learn and develop. The cases are scanned whole slide images and are viewed online, thus giving experience in manipulation and interpretation of digital images, a skill which will become increasingly important in the near future. In addition, the more participants there are, the better we can all assess our individual interpretive skills and the wider the “pool” of people to submit cases. 

Note that cases can be submitted as glass slides and, if suitable, will be scanned by the scheme.

Please visit the NEQAS website where there is an email address for initial enquiries. Note that signing up for the scheme will require your employer to generate a Purchase Order (PO) number
