INTRODUCTION: Digitizing cytology slides presents challenges because of their three-dimensional features and uneven cell distribution. While multi-Z-plane scan is a prevalent solution, its adoption in clinical digital cytopathology is hindered by pro...
Urinary cytology using the Paris system is still the method of choice for screening high-grade urothelial carcinomas. However, the use of the objective criteria described in this terminology shows a lack of inter- and intra-observer reproducibility. ...
The diagnosis of kidney disease often involves analysing urine sediment particles. Traditionally, urinalysis was performed manually by collecting urine samples and using a centrifuge, which was prone to manual errors and relied on labour-intensive pr...

BACKGROUND: Traditional culture methods are time-consuming, making it difficult to utilize the results in the early stage of urinary tract infection (UTI) management, and automated urinalyses alone show insufficient performance for diagnosing UTIs. S...
Deep learning object detection networks require a large amount of box annotation data for training, which is difficult to obtain in the medical image field. The few-shot object detection algorithm is significant for an unseen category, which can be i...
