title: Computer based application software for histopathological reporting system.
abstract: For better follow up of patient and the immediate retrieval of records, we have developed a computer based application software for histopathological reporting system (HIPRIS). With its help, among others, we can (i) retrieve the biopsy report of a patient from the accession number of the specimen; (ii) find out the number of cases for a particular period as well as can analyse cases by any relevant referral parameter like department, specialty and disease and (iii) find out the time gap between receiving the specimen and reporting of result. Our experience suggests that this system greatly improves the efficiency of the histopathological laboratory.
