Numerical histopathology and artificial intelligence
By Xavier Descombes, Director of Research, Inria
 |
Histopathology consists in examining microscopy images to make a diagnosis, a prognosis. Furthermore, the analysis of these images makes it possible to detect biological markers of a given pathology. The number of cases to be studied as well as the size of the images make this process tedious and comes up against a limited number of specialists. Digital tools are therefore now essential in this process.
We will discuss in this presentation the contributions of artificial intelligence in this area and the underlying issues, particularly due to the volume of data.
