Development of a deep learning model for glomerulus detection and segmentation in kidney histopathology images
Key takeaways
Researchers built a computer program to count and measure kidney filters in biopsy images. This tool could help doctors track kidney health without manual counting. The study used 114 kidney biopsies to test the system. It is a preprint, so it has not passed peer review yet.
