[Rediscovery in morphology; information processing of pathology].
20 years ago, bacilli of Helicobacter pylori were discovered, although these bacilli had been recognized before under microscope. This fact suggests that many findings are still buried in the pathological materials. Now computer technology is making remarkable progress; in addition to database software, voice recognition and virtual microscopy are available. These information technology will make possible to detect buried findings, and act as a guide to new rediscovery.
