Not sure if this is the right CoPath but here goes anyway.
CoPath is (or was) an anatomic pathology laboratory system. So, from the beginning then....
Anatomical pathology is the diagnosis of diseases/illnesses through the examination of body tissues/organs/cells either on a macro scale (i.e. looking at a body or whole organ like in an autopsy) or micro scale (i.e. tissue parts like a biopsy).
The folk who do this use an IT system to log the requests and sample IDs, record results, have results checked and then authorised and then store those records for the future.
CoPath is one such system. Created by Dynamic Healthcare Technologies Inc.who were subsequently taken over by Cerner Corporationin 2001 and renamed Cerner DHT Inc.
Note dht's website now is redirected to Cerner's website. (This take over also created two (2) CoPaths if you will. One is owned by Cerner and the other is owned by Sunquest Information Systems
