De-Mystifying AI: Artificial Intelligence Applications in Histology
Recorded On: 10/15/2020
- Registration Closed
In recent years, the term AI (Artificial Intelligence) has become a buzz word in the scientific community - particularly in Pathology. More often than not, scientists have been given a directive to investigate AI solutions with no real detail beyond that. AI can mean many different things in many different contexts. This workshop will help to define the term AI, and look at its application in various aspects of Pathology and Histology. By framing the concepts in a user-friendly manner, we can minimize some of the barriers to adoption and look at various levels of application. These will include: Deep learning networks designed to identify and eliminate artifacts in slide preparation, segment structures within tissue sections, identify cells and phenotypes, and identify pathology scores based on tissue morphology. By providing real time examples of using AI in practical Pathology and Histology applications, we can de-mystify the concept of AI and make it accessible to scientists both in and outside of the computer lab.
