Discordant cases (between telepathology and final diagnoses).

Type			Sample source		Telepathology diagnosis		Final diagnosis		Annotation
False positivea
	Case 1	Lung/mediastinum		Poorly differentiated carcinoma		Immunoglobulin M–positive lymphoproliferative disease with alveolar epithelial atypical hyperplasia		Unlabeled immunohistochemistry results
	Case 2	Respiratory tract		Highly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma		Squamous papillary hyperplasia with local typical hyperplasia		Intractable case
	Case 3	Uterus		Endometrial complex hyperplasia, local atypical hyperplasia, focal canceration		Simple endometrial hyperplasia		N/Ab
	Case 4	Uterus		Papillary squamous cell carcinoma		High-grade SILc involving glands		A bleeding background on the section
False negatived
	Case 1	Female genital organs		Vulva: chronic inflammation with low-grade SIL Cervix: chronic inflammation with high-grade SIL		Vulva: highly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with local superficial infiltration (depth of infiltration <1 mm) Cervix: chronic cervicitis, focal high-grade SIL, and involving glands		Unlabeled immunohistochemistry results
	Case 2	Skin		Chronic inflammation, squamous epithelial hyperplasia with hyperkeratosis and parakeratosis		Superficial spreading malignant melanoma		Intractable case
	Case 3	Uterus		Chronic inflammation, glandular hyperplasia		Minimal deviation adenocarcinoma		N/A
	Case 4	Uterus		Chronic cervicitis with focal high-grade SIL and involving glands		High-grade SIL involving glands and squamous cell carcinoma in situ		N/A
	Case 5	Thyroid		Adenomatous nodular goiter with fibrosis and chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis around		Follicular carcinoma		Unlabeled immunohistochemistry results

	Case 7	Uterus		SIL		Squamous cell carcinoma		A bleeding background on the section

^aCases that were malignant in telepathology diagnosis but benign in final diagnosis were considered false positive.

^bN/A: not applicable.

^cSIL: squamous intraepithelial lesion.

^dCases that were malignant in the final diagnosis but benign in telepathology diagnosis were considered false negative.
