Developments in digital pathology and computational image analysis have the potential to identify new disease mechanisms, improve disease classification and prognostication, and ultimately aid the identification of targeted therapies. In this Review, the authors provide an outline of the digital ecosystem in nephropathology and describe potential applications and challenges associated with the emerging armamentarium of technologies for image analysis.
