Abstract

Methods and systems for automatically mapping biopsy locations to pathology results. One system includes a server including an electronic processor and an interface for communicating with at least one data source and at least one pathology result source. The electronic processor is configured to receive an image from the at least one data source over the interface. The electronic processor is also configured to receive a biopsy location. The biopsy location includes a three-dimensional position mapped to a position within the image. The electronic processor is also configured to automatically locate an electronic pathology result for the biopsy location within the at least one pathology result source over the interface. The electronic processor is also configured to generate an electronic correlation between the biopsy location and the electronic pathology result. The electronic processor is also configured to display the image with the biopsy location marked within the image.
