One of the challenges facing the adoption of digital pathology workflows for clinical use is the need for automated quality control. As the scanners sometimes determine focus inaccurately, the resultant image blur deteriorates the scanned…
Computational pathology involves the digitization of stained tissues into whole-slide images (WSIs) that contain billions of pixels arranged as contiguous patches. Statistical analysis of WSIs largely focuses on classification via multiple…
Directly predicting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status from widely available hematoxylin and eosin (HE)-stained whole slide images (WSIs) can reduce technical costs and expedite treatment selection. Accurately predicting…
Histopathology slides are routinely marked by pathologists using permanent ink markers that should not be removed as they form part of the medical record. Often tumour regions are marked up for the purpose of highlighting features or other…
High-fidelity biomechanical models usually involve the mechanical characterization of biological tissues using experimental methods based on optical measurements. In most experiments, strains are evaluated based on displacements of a few…
Purpose: In this work, we present a collaboration to create a validation dataset of pathologist annotations for algorithms that process whole slide images (WSIs). We focus on data collection and evaluation of algorithm performance in the…
The classification of histopathological images is of great value in both cancer diagnosis and pathological studies. However, multiple reasons, such as variations caused by magnification factors and class imbalance, make it a challenging…
Objects that undergo non-rigid deformation are common in the real world. A typical and challenging example is the human faces. While various techniques have been developed for deformable shape registration and classification, benchmarks…
High-quality whole-slide scanning is expensive, complex, and time-consuming, thus limiting the acquisition and utilization of high-resolution histopathology images in daily clinical work. Deep learning-based single-image super-resolution…
Introduction: Nottingham grading system is a major prognostic factor for invasive breast carcinoma (IBC). Its determination requires the evaluation of the mitotic score (MS) which is subject to low intra- and inter-observer reproducibility.…
Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining provides crucial molecular characterization of tissue samples and plays an indispensable role in the clinical examination and diagnosis of cancers. However, compared with the commonly used Hematoxylin and…
Whole-slide image (WSI) classification is a challenging task because 1) patches from WSI lack annotation, and 2) WSI possesses unnecessary variability, e.g., stain protocol. Recently, Multiple-Instance Learning (MIL) has made significant…
Variously stained histology slices are routinely used by pathologists to assess extracted tissue samples from various anatomical sites and determine the presence or extent of a disease. Evaluation of sequential slides is expected to enable…
Recently there have been many algorithms proposed for the classification of very high resolution whole slide images (WSIs). These new algorithms are mostly focused on finding novel ways to combine the information from small local patches…
Molecular testing of tumor samples for targetable biomarkers is restricted by a lack of standardization, turnaround-time, cost, and tissue availability across cancer types. Additionally, targetable alterations of low prevalence may not be…
Automated whole slide image (WSI) tagging has become a growing demand due to the increasing volume and diversity of WSIs collected nowadays in histopathology. Various methods have been studied to classify WSIs with single tags but none of…
The rapid growth of digital pathology and advances in self-supervised deep learning have enabled the development of foundational models for various pathology tasks across diverse diseases. While multimodal approaches integrating diverse…
Classifying breast cancer molecular subtypes is crucial for tailoring treatment strategies. While immunohistochemistry (IHC) and gene expression profiling are standard methods for molecular subtyping, IHC can be subjective, and gene…
Reliable quality control (QC) of ultrasound images is essential for both real-time acquisition guidance and retrospective clinical audit, yet existing approaches rely heavily on per-plane annotations, or employ pseudo-labeling prone to…
