Several key features define a robust centralized database in histology:
Data Integration: It combines data from multiple sources, including different labs, research studies, and clinical records. User Access Control: Ensures that only authorized personnel can access sensitive information, thus maintaining data security and privacy. Search and Query Capabilities: Advanced search functions allow users to quickly find specific data, whether it be images, reports, or raw data. Data Annotation: Users can annotate images and other data types, adding valuable context and insights. Interoperability: The database should be able to communicate with other systems and databases to facilitate data exchange.
