Abstract
Data aquisition in pathology, like in every other clinical field, must be based on a structured representation of medical objectives if automated data analyzation should be possible. A system is described, which supports structured pathological data aquisition based on objects stored in a central medical data dictionary. The programs run on local workstations which are installed at the offices of pathologists. They are connected by a LAN to the hospital information systems central Tandem database computer.
