We have investigated the changes in the workflow of the cytologist due to the introduction of telepathology. These changes occur in two stages. The first is the use of telepathology as a support methodology using external providers (i.e. outside the hospital) to digitize the slides. The second is the use of telepathology in routine laboratory operations using an internal scanner to digitize the slides. To improve courses in the Master of Cytology programme at the University of La Sapienza, new learning modules were designed, which were made available via the wide area computer network to familiarize students with the new technologies. The new methodologies had three benefits. The first was the high level of knowledge for the student. The second was the cost advantage to the student, who did not need to study in a medical laboratory to participate in the teaching. The third was the cost advantage to the hospital: as laboratories become freed from academic work, they become more available for clinical use.
