1. A computer-implemented method for processing electronic medical images, the method comprising: receiving a plurality of electronic medical images of a medical specimen; dividing each of the plurality of electronic medical images into a plurality of tiles, each tile of the plurality of tiles being of a predetermined size; determining a plurality of sets of matching tiles, the tiles within each set corresponding to a given region of a plurality of regions of the medical specimen; for each tile of the plurality of sets of matching tiles, determining a blur score corresponding to a level of image blur of the tile; determining whether if a predetermined threshold of tiles in a given location have inadequate blur scores; upon determining that the predetermined threshold is exceeded, ordering a rescan of the corresponding medical image for each set of matching tiles, determining a tile with the blur score indicating the lowest level of blur; determining a composite electronic medical image, the composite electronic medical image comprising a plurality of tiles from each set of matching tiles with the blur score indicating the lowest level of blur; and providing the composite electronic medical image for display.
