Mapping Diagnostic Innovation to Patient Impact

Bringing together trailblazers across the cancer diagnostic landscape to elevate every step of the patient journey.

A Convergence of Excellence

Nestled at the base of the breathtaking Wasatch Mountains in Park City, Utah, the Digital Diagnostic Summit brings together innovators from across the cancer landscape to map innovation to patient impact. Anchored by digital pathology, the event unites leading experts through a unique blend of professional collaboration and unconventional networking. By moving visionary theory into real-world implementation, we foster experience-driven engagement that extends far beyond the conference room and into the peaks of Utah.

August 26–28, 2026
The St. Regis | Park City, Utah

Call for Presenters & Abstracts

We invite presenters to submit abstracts that demonstrate how diagnostic innovation meaningfully improves the patient journey. Submissions should go beyond concept and vision to highlight practical application, measurable outcomes, and real-world lessons learned. The most compelling proposals will clearly connect innovation to patient impact whether through improved diagnostic confidence, faster time to treatment, better clinical alignment, or more effective care pathways.

Selected presentations should
• Demonstrate real-world implementation, not theory only
• Clearly articulate the impact on patients and the diagnostic journey
• Share insights, challenges, and outcomes that others can apply
• Align with the Summit’s collaborative, experience-driven format

Why Present at the Digital Diagnostic Summit?
This is not a traditional conference. Presenters engage in meaningful dialogue with peers who are actively shaping the future of cancer diagnostics through collaboration, immersive experiences, and unconventional networking that extens beyond the conference room. It is a forum for leaders who are not just discussing what’s next by actively building it.

Abstracts are due by March 31 11:59PM MT
