Deep Learning Provides Rapid Screen for Breast Cancer Metastasis with Sentinel Lymph Nodes [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Deep learning has been shown to be useful to detect breast cancer metastases by analyzing whole slide images of sentinel lymph nodes. However, it requires extensive scanning and analysis of all the lymph nodes slides for each case. Our deep learning study focuses on breast cancer screening with only a small set of image patches from any sentinel lymph ...
