dc.description.abstract | A computer-aided detection system for tissue cell nuclei in histological sections is introduced and validated as part of the Biopsy Analysis Support System (BASS). Cell nuclei are selectively stained with monoclonal antibodies such as the antiestrogen receptor antibodies which are widely applied as part of assessing patient prognosis in breast cancer. The detection system uses a receptive field filter to enhance negatively and positively stained cell nuclei and a squashing function to label each pixel value as belonging to the background or a nucleus. In this study the detection system assessed all biopsies in an automated fashion. Detection and classification of individual nuclei as well as biopsy grading performance was shown to be promising as compared to that of two experts. Sensitivity and positive predictive value were measured to be 83% and 67.4% respectively. One major advantage of BASS stems from the fact that the system simulates the assessment procedures routinely employed by human experts | en |
dc.description.abstract | thus it can be used as an additional independent expert. Moreover the system allows the efficient accumulation of data from large numbers of nuclei in a short time span. Therefore the potential for accurate quantitative assessments is increased and a platform for more standardized evaluations is provided. © 1997 IEEE. | en |
