Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based cytopathology studies conducted using deep learning have enabled cell detection and classification. Liquid-based cytology (LBC) has facilitated the standardisation of specimen preparation; however, cytomorphology varies according to the LBC processing technique used. In this study, we elucidated the relationship between two LBC techniques and cell detection and classification using a deep learning model.
