  • COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING AND CHARACTERIZING GENE TRANSLOCATIONS, REARRANGEMENTS AND INVERSIONS
    Publication number: 20200318174
    Abstract: In alternative embodiments, provided are methods comprising use of FISH, IHC or equivalent gene fusion detection protocols, and gene sequencing, wherein optionally the gene sequencing is high throughput or next generation gene sequencing, for the identification and characterization of gene abnormalities such as gene breakages; optionally gene breakages comprise gene translocation, gene rearrangements and/or gene inversions. In alternative embodiments, genes or transcripts are analyzed from individuals suspected of having cancer, and the analysis is carried out on biological samples taken from these individuals. This identification and characterization of gene abnormalities can be used in the diagnosis and treatment of a cancer.

  • Method and apparatus for image scoring and analysis
    Patent number: 9607376
    Abstract: Methods and systems for image scoring and analysis are provided. Scored and analyzed images may include digital pathology images. Image scoring and analysis methods may include techniques to identify nuclei and determine membrane staining extent through the use of a priori models. Image scoring and analysis methods may include techniques for membrane intensity determination. Images may be scored based on an extent of membrane staining and membrane intensity.
