A Unified Deep Learning Framework for Instance Segmentation Across Diverse Cytological Stains

Cytopathology, EarlyView.
Transformer‐based unified cytology segmentation across Papanicolaou, Feulgen and AgNOR achieves stain‐invariant performance. Mask2Former maximises boundary precision (AP75) on the combined dataset, enabling one model to replace multiple stain‐specific deployments without accuracy loss while simplifying clinical integration.

The Impact of Change in Practicing Cytopathologists' Team on Risk of Malignancy in a Retrospective Single‐Centre Project of 652 Thyroid Nodules: A Quality Assurance Project

Cytopathology, EarlyView.
This quality assurance project confirms that thyroid FNAC is a reliable tool for assessing the risk of malignancy (ROM), with ROM rates aligning with published data. However, cytology team changes can reveal interobserver variability and shift category distribution and malignancy rates, underlining the need for ongoing quality assurance and training ...

RNA Extended Interventional Nucleic Acid (REINA) Longitudinal Study: Decreased Risk of CIN2+/CIN3+ With Low‐Grade Cytology After A Previous Negative HPV Test

Cytopathology, EarlyView.
REINA study shows decreased immediate and long‐term risks of CIN2+ and CIN3+ lesions in mRNA HPV‐positive women with minor cytological abnormalities after a previous negative Aptima HPV test in the first round. The decreased CIN2+/CIN3+ risks, below colposcopy referral thresholds, can modify women's management, highlighting the importance of ...

What Are Computer‐Assisted Methods Achieving in Fine‐Needle Aspiration Cytology of the Pancreas? A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Cytopathology, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis demonstrates high diagnostic accuracy of computer‐assisted methods in pancreatic EUS‐FNA cytology (AUC 0.92–0.96) and supports an integrated, cytopathologist‐led workflow in which artificial intelligence functions as an adjunct to diagnostic interpretation and on‐site evaluation (ROSE).
