## Overview

Health systems are rapidly adopting digital pathology solutions, but many struggle to scale beyond the lab without creating new silos. [Hyland enterprise imaging](/en/solutions/industries/healthcare/enterprise-medical-imaging), powered by an FDA‑cleared diagnostic pathology from Tribun Health, **enables health systems to modernize pathology while extending it securely across the enterprise**.

Together, Tribun Health and Hyland connect pathology imaging, clinical context and long‑term image management across the organization — without compromising diagnostic workflows or regulatory clarity.

## A digital pathology solution without silos

Pathology should be part of the longitudinal patient record, not locked in the lab.

Hyland Enterprise Digital Pathology integrates FDA‑cleared primary diagnosis workflows from Tribun Health with Hyland’s enterprise imaging foundation. This approach allows pathology to scale across care teams and specialties while preserving diagnostic rigor and compliance.

The MetroHealth System wanted to devise an enterprise imaging strategy that would make considerable impact on the entire health system. With a little help from Hyland, the health system did just that.

In the first three years after rollout, **8,000 MetroHealth staff members viewed more than 4.7 million images**. At that point, the health system already had more than 5.5 million images stored in Hyland Acuo.
