Digital Pathology Image Analysis
Automate cell counting, identify regions of interest, and pre-screen slides using computer vision.
Computer visionAnatomic PathologyHospital LabsReference Labs
Manual Microscopy Bottleneck
Pathologists spend hours manually reviewing slides, counting cells, and identifying regions of interest. This is time-consuming, prone to fatigue, and creates capacity constraints.
Impact on Labs:
- β’Pathologist burnout and shortage
- β’Inconsistent cell counts between reviewers
- β’Slow slide review turnaround
- β’Capacity limitations for growth
- β’Fatigue-related errors
TYPICAL COST:
$150,000-$300,000 in pathologist time annually
AI-Powered Slide Analysis
Computer vision models automatically detect cells, identify regions of interest, and pre-screen slidesβallowing pathologists to focus on decision-making.
Our Approach:
- βAutomated cell detection and counting
- βRegion of interest highlighting
- βSlide quality assessment
- βPre-screening for high-priority areas
- βConfidence scoring for pathologist review
Technology Stack:
- βConvolutional Neural Networks (CNN)
- βObject detection (YOLO, Faster R-CNN)
- βImage segmentation (U-Net)
- βTransfer learning from pre-trained models
Enhanced Pathology Workflow
