Abstract

BACKGROUND: Although deep learning algorithms for clinical cytology have recently been developed, their application to practical assistance systems has not been achieved. In addition, whether deep learning systems (DLSs) can perform diagnoses that cannot be performed by pathologists has not been fully evaluated.
