  • Patent number: 9436992
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provides improved methods for determining the presence of abnormalities in exfoliated cells. In one embodiment, the present disclosure provides methods for reconstructing cellular spectrum of a cell sample by creating a spectral map of the cellular sample, generating a binary mask of the spectral map, removing edge artifacts from each cell, and co-adding spectral data of each pixel corresponding to the cell to reconstruct the spectrum of each cell.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 3, 2015
    Date of Patent: September 6, 2016
    Assignee: Northeastern University
    Inventors: Max Diem, Milos Miljkovic, Melissa Romeo, Benjamin Bird, Jennifer Schubert, Kostas Papamarkakis
