Mitosis Extraction in Breast-Cancer Histopathological Whole Slide Images

چکیده
In this paper, we present a graph-based multi-resolution approach for mitosis extraction in breast cancer histological whole slide images. The proposed segmentation uses a multi-resolution approach which reproduces the slide examination done by a pathologist. Each resolution level is analyzed with a focus of attention resulting from a coarser resolution level analysis. At each resolution level, a spatial refinement by semi-supervised clustering is performed to obtain more accurate segmentation around edges. The proposed segmentation is fully unsupervised by using domain specific knowledge.

متن کاملAutomated Mitosis Detection in Color and Multi-spectral High-Content Images in Histopathology: Application to Breast Cancer Grading in Digital Pathology
Digital pathology represents one of the major and challenging evolutions in modern medicine. Pathological exams constitute not only the gold standard in most of medical protocols, but also play a critical and legal role in the diagnosis process. Diagnosing a disease after manually analyzing numerous biopsy slides represents a labor-intensive work for pathologists. Thanks to the recent advances ...
متن کاملLarge scale digital prostate pathology image analysis combining feature extraction and deep neural network
Histopathological assessments, including surgical resection and core needle biopsy, are the standard procedures in the diagnosis of the prostate cancer. Current interpretation of the histopathology images includes the determination of the tumor area, Gleason grading, and identification of certain prognosis-critical features. Such a process is not only tedious, but also prune to intra/inter-obse...

متن کاملHistological Detection of High-Risk Benign Breast Lesions from Whole Slide Images
• Accurate diagnosis of high-risk benign breast lesions is crucial since they are associated with an increased risk of invasive breast cancer development. • Since it is not yet possible to identify the occult cancer patients without surgery, this limitation leads to retrospectively unnecessary surgeries. • Here, we present a computational pathology pipeline for histological diagnosis of high-ri...
