  schema:description "In much of Africa and South Asia there is about one pathologist per million people, so the pathologist, not the tissue sample, is the diagnostic bottleneck. A slide scanner in each district lab, routing images to a pooled roster of pathologists including diaspora volunteers, could give a diagnosis in days instead of months; the gap is scale and financing."@en ;
