  • Patent number: 11221333
    Abstract: The invention provides a system, composition, and methods of using the systems and compositions for the analysis of a sample from a subject to accurately diagnose, prognose, or classify the subject with certain grades of or susceptibility to Barrett's esophagus. In some embodiments, the system of the present invention comprises a means of detecting and/or quantifying morphological features, the expression of protein, or the expression of nucleic acids in a plurality of cells and correlating that data with a subject's medical history to predict clinical outcome, treatment plans, preventive medicine plans, or effective therapies. In some embodiments, the invention relates to a method of classifying and compiling data taken from a cell sample from a subject analyzing the data, and converting the data from the system into a score by which a pathologist may calculate the likelihood that the subject develops cancer.

  • Publication number: 20140212892
    Abstract: The invention provides an improved method for identifying and interpreting tissue specimens and/or cells derived from tissue specimens. A panel of cell-based reagents provides a number of readouts of cellular states or biomarkers that together define a profile of a diversity of cellular states or biomarkers in a tissue specimen representing the ‘systems” nature of biology. This cellular profile is interpreted using informatics tools, to identify similarities between specimens, in vivo medical conditions, and suggest options for treating medical conditions.
