  • Publication number: 20260080655
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods that may receive an image, wherein the image includes an annotation at least partially enclosing a region of interest (“ROI”), wherein the image has a plurality of pixels. The systems and methods may use a first algorithm to determine at least one foreground and at least one background from the image. The systems and methods may use a second algorithm to determine a plurality of annotation pixels from the plurality of pixels of the image. The systems and methods may intersect outputs from the first algorithm and the second algorithm to determine an intersection which defines the ROI.

  • Patent number: 12511861
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for identifying regions of interest (ROIs) in images. A computing system may identify an image including an annotation defining an ROI. The image may have a plurality of pixels in a first color space. The computing system may convert the plurality of pixels from the first color space to a second color space to differentiate the annotation from the ROI. The computing system may select a first subset of pixels corresponding to the annotation based at least on a color value of the first subset of pixels in the second color space. The computing system may identify a second subset of pixels included in the ROI from the image using the first subset of pixels. The computing system may store an association between the second subset of pixels and the ROI defined by the annotation in the image.

  • Patent number: 12450735
    Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods for classifying features from biomedical images. A computing system may identify a first portion corresponding to an ROI in a first biomedical image derived from a sample. The ROI of the first biomedical image may correspond to a feature of the sample. The computing system may generate a first embedding vector using the first portion of the first biomedical image. The computing system may apply the first embedding vector to a clustering model. The clustering model may have a feature space to define a plurality of conditions. The clustering model may be trained using a second embedding vectors generated from a corresponding second portions with at least one of a plurality of image transformation. The computing system may determine a condition for the feature based on applying the first embedding vector to the clustering model.

  • Publication number: 20250252758
    Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods of determining predicted outcomes of subjects with cancer from biomedical images. A computing system may identify a biomedical image of a tissue sample from a subject with cancer. The biomedical image may have (i) a first region of interest (ROI) corresponding to viable tumor and (ii) a second ROI corresponding to necrotic tumor in the tissue sample. The computing system may apply a machine learning model to the biomedical image to determine (i) a first segment identifying the first ROI and (ii) a second segment identifying the second ROI. The computing system may determine a ratio between a first size of the first segment associated with the viable tumor and a second size of the second segment associated with the necrotic tumor. The computing system may generate a value indicative of a predicted outcome of the cancer in the subject using the ratio.
