In this decade, the pathological information system has gradually been settled in many hospitals in Japan. Pathological reports and images are now digitized and managed in the database, and are referred by clinicians at the peripherals. Tele-pathology is also developing; and its users are increasing. However, in many occasions, the problem solving in diagnostic pathology is completely dependent on the solo-pathologist. Considering the need for timely and efficient supports to the solo-pathologist, I reviewed the papers on the knowledge-based interactive expert systems. The interpretations of the histopathological images are dependent on the pathologist, and these expert systems have been evaluated as "educational". With the view of the success in the cytological screening, the development of "image-analysis-based" automatic "histopathological image" classifier has been on ongoing challenges. Our 3 years experience of the development of the pathological image classifier using the artificial neural networks technology is briefly presented. This classifier provides us a "fitting rate" for the individual diagnostic pattern of the breast tumors, such as "fibroadenoma pattern". The diagnosis assisting system with computer technology should provide pathologists, especially solo-pathologists, a useful tool for the quality assurance and improvement of pathological diagnosis.
