BACKGROUND: Staining tissue samples to visualise cellular detail and tissue structure is at the core of pathology diagnosis, but variations in staining can result in significantly different appearances of the tissue sample. While the human visual sys...

Neoadjuvant therapies are used for locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinomas, whereby pathologists histologically evaluate the effect using resected specimens. Major pathological response (MPR) has recently been used for treatment evaluation an...
Microscopic evaluation of hematoxylin and eosin-stained slides is still the diagnostic gold standard for a variety of diseases, including neoplasms. Nevertheless, intra- and interrater variability are well documented among pathologists. So far, compu...
Determining the molecular characteristics of cancer patients is crucial for optimal immunotherapy decisions. The aim of this study was to screen immunotherapy beneficiaries by predicting key molecular features from hematoxylin and eosin-stained image...

Tumor budding (TB), the presence of single cells or small clusters of up to 4 tumor cells at the invasive front of colorectal cancer (CRC), is a proven risk factor for adverse outcomes. International definitions are necessary to reduce interobserver ...
Tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) is a prognostic factor for many types of solid tumors. In this study, we propose a method for automated estimation of TSR from histopathological images of colorectal cancer. The method is based on convolutional neural network...
Polyploidy, the duplication of the entire genome within a single cell, is a significant characteristic of cells in many tissues, including the liver. The quantification of hepatic ploidy typically relies on flow cytometry and immunofluorescence (IF) ...
