As a clinician, you work hard to ensure your patients get the best quality of care possible. But sometimes, you can do everything right and your patients still miss out on critical treatment timelines. Samples can get lost in the lab, a lack of access to specialised tests can mean referring patients to distant facilities, and poor quality control can lead to inconclusive or delayed results.

At The Pathology Network, we believe every minute matters. That's why we built Spes360—a unified coordination system that connects hospitals, laboratories, and pathologists. Through Spes360, you can access our diagnostic coordination service that allows you to order tests, track samples in real-time, ensure quality control, and receive high-quality pathology reports at the tap of a button.

Say goodbye to days lost coordinating sample pick-ups, chasing lab results, and ensuring reports meet your clinical preferences, because when diagnostics work seamlessly, you can focus on what truly matters: delivering timely, life-saving care to your patients.

Antimicrobial resistance is one of the biggest crises of our age, claiming 1.27 million lives every year, and it is only accelerating.

AMR is making common infections like tuberculosis, gonorrhea, and pneumonia untreatable, and routine procedures, like surgeries, C-sections, and chemotherapy, more dangerous. The most vulnerable among us bear the greatest risk.

New antimicrobials are not being developed fast enough to keep up with the rapid pace of microbial evolution. But diagnostics can change the equation.

Precision diagnostics remains our most powerful weapon against AMR. Accurate, timely and reliable diagnostics enable tailored treatments, support antimicrobial stewardship, and strengthen national surveillance systems.

Spes360 makes this possible at scale. Our platform streamlines diagnostic workflows and standardises quality across labs, clinicians, governments, and stewardship programs, delivering the reliable intelligence needed to fight AMR effectively.

The fight against AMR starts with better diagnostics. Let's talk about how Spes360 can strengthen yours. Visit spes360.com and sign up for a free account.

Pharmaceutical access programs are a lifeline for many Africans. They deliver millions of doses annually for conditions ranging from HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis to cancer and cardiovascular disease.

But how can they live up to their full potential when African health systems face critical diagnostic gaps, fragmented laboratory infrastructure, and weak regulatory frameworks that translate into months of delays and misdiagnoses?

This piece by Titus O'Connor and Dr. Joshua Kibera discusses the infrastructure that pharmaceutical companies need to address systemic issues that have long plagued access programs. It presents the case for partnership between Pharma and local diagnostic connectors, who understand local contexts, regulatory environments, and healthcare delivery challenges, as a solution to the systemic challenges plaguing local health systems.

Medical imaging stands as a cornerstone of modern healthcare, enabling us to see what is invisible to the naked eye and providing critical insights that guide patient care.

At The Pathology Network, we value our daily collaboration with radiographers and radiologists, where imaging findings and pathology results converge to deliver accurate, high-quality diagnoses.

In recognition of these vital contributions and the work that radiographers and radiologists do every day in diagnosis and treatment, we wish everyone in the imaging community a happy World Radiography Day.

You'll find them hunched over microscopes, working silently for hours on end. Like detectives on a case, their sharp & well-honed minds detect what others cannot.

They are our heroes in the fight against cancer, our vanguard in the war against disease. They are health system transformers, expert analysts who can meticulously transform tissue samples into life-saving answers. They are pathologists.

Happy International Pathology Day to all pathologists worldwide.

We are here at the 17th Annual KACP Scientific Conference, and day 1 is off to a great start!

Our CEO, Dr Joshua Kibera, delivered the keynote address for the day.

He presented a compelling case for implementing digital pathology reporting across Africa, highlighting that critical delays and hazards inherent in traditional pathology systems are not only major sources of diagnostic errors, but are also diagnostic errors in themselves.

The theme of this year, "Promoting Pathology Through Innovation," aligns with our mission to develop technological and diagnostic coordination solutions to address issues affecting the practice of lab medicine across Africa.

Our innovative Spes360 solution is designed to bring structure and predictability to lab sample referrals. It enables hospitals, clinicians, laboratories, and pathologists to work within a unified digital environment, coordinating diagnostics from end to end; thus, bringing clarity, communication, and safety to the diagnostic process.

The Pathology Network is pleased to have participated in the UK-Kenya Health Roundtable organised by InnovateUK Global Alliance Africa, through the UK-Kenya Health Global Innovation Network.

During the presentation, we were proud to hear testimonials from our clinical partners on the impact the LiberatePro project has had on cervical cancer education.

In early 2024, The Pathology Network (TPN), through its HPV-focused Ayana initiative, partnered with the UK-based health-tech company Liberate Pro HealthCare and its parent company, Alpha MD, based in Mumbai, India, to tackle this challenge.

Supported by Innovate UK, the "LiberatePro" project developed an audiovisual education tool to support cervical cancer sensitisation across 10 hospitals and clinics in Kenya.

The project educated over 400 women and 200 clinicians in their local language, creating transformative change across communities. Clinicians reported significantly improved understanding of HPV and cervical cancer among community members, reduced disease stigma, and notably increased cervical cancer screening rates—demonstrating the power of culturally sensitive, language-appropriate health education in driving real-world impact.

When you join The Pathology Network, you're not just getting access to diagnostic infrastdructure and coordination services, but you're also joining a community redefining how healthcare works across Africa.

Pathology and lab medicine are the backbone of a functional healthcare system.

When they operate effectively, doctors can make accurate diagnoses and prescribe appropriate treatments. However, when they fall short, the entire health system suffers.

Africa's health systems face critical diagnostic bottlenecks: hundreds of specimens pile up at single labs with too few pathologists, causing delays in diagnoses from remote areas and compromising quality care.

That’s where our Spes360 solution comes in.

Built by African pathologists for African health systems, Spes360 connects and distributes diagnostic workloads intelligently across multiple laboratories and specialists nationwide.

The result:
✅ Faster specimen processing
✅ Consistent, accredited quality
✅ Timely diagnoses for every community
✅ Simplified tracking and reimbursement
✅ Scalable, sustainable healthcare delivery

Spes360 connects all stakeholders within the diagnostic ecosystem, enabling every patient to be diagnosed and every result to reach the right clinician on time.

Delayed diagnoses and limited access to specialised expertise remain critical barriers to quality healthcare across our continent.

With pathologist-to-population ratios as low as 1:1,000,000 in some African nations (compared to 1:20,000 in high-income countries) and a fragmented diagnostic ecosystem, it is unsurprising that manageable diseases, such as cancer, contribute highly to the continent’s mortality.

But digital pathology and AI are changing the game.

Telepathology, the remote interpretation of digitised histology slides, as well as AI and digital tools, are enabling:

✓ Rural hospitals to access the same diagnostic expertise as urban centers
✓ Round-the-clock turnaround times through digital workflows
✓ AI-assisted triage and quantification to support overburdened pathologists
✓ Quality training for the next generation through digital archives
“Telepathology, powered by digital and AI tools, represents a game-changing solution for Africa’s pathology crisis. By digitising histology slides, enabling remote consultations, and incorporating AI decision support, countries can overcome workforce shortages, improve diagnostic accuracy, and build resilient health systems.”

Read Dr. Mary Achakolong's comprehensive analysis on how Africa can harness digital tools to transform diagnostic pathology and save lives.
