Patent number: 11887355Abstract: Disclosed is a system for analysis of microscopic image data which includes a data processing system. Pixel classification data for each of a plurality of pixels of the microscopic image data are read. The pixel classification data include for each of the pixels of the microscopic image data, binary or probabilistic classification data for classifying the pixel of the microscopic image data into one or more object classes of pre-defined objects which are shown by the image. At least a portion of the pixels of the microscopic image data are grouped to form one or more pixels groups. For each of the pixel groups, probabilistic group classificati on data are calculated depending on the pixel classification data of the pixels of the respective group.

Publication number: 20230010980Abstract: A process for converting an arbitrary input digital pathology image into an output digital pathology image that shares statistical information with a reference image. The input digital pathology image is separated into two or more image sections. Each image section is encoded, using a first convolutional neural network, into one or more feature maps. The one or more feature maps of each image section are modified based on statistical information derived from a reference image. The modified feature map(s) of each image section is/are then decoded to construct a respective image section for an output image. The constructed image sections for an output image then form the output image.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2020Publication date: January 12, 2023Inventors: RUUD VLUTTERS, MARINUS BASTIAAN VAN LEEUWEN

Publication number: 20210366107Abstract: The ability to obtain and digitise pathology samples (such as in histopathology or cytopathology) has opened up the possibility of accurate and automated computer operated analysis, or computer-assisted analysis, when diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions. A typical digital pathology image analysis pipeline involves a large number of image pre-processing and processing operations. Small changes in the parameters used in these algorithms might lead to significant changes in the eventual pathological finding. Accordingly, the present application proposes to perform a sensitivity analysis on a digital pathology image analysis pipeline to assess the sensitivity of a given pathology result to changes of parameters in the digital pathology image analysis pipeline.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 29, 2019Publication date: November 25, 2021Inventors: MARINUS BASTIAAN VAN LEEUWEN, REINHOLD WIMBERGER-FRIEDL

Patent number: 9990723Abstract: An apparatus (MDS) and related method for image processing. The apparatus includes a multi-modal matcher (M). The matcher (M) operates to match a first reference (RF1) image against a stream (LF) of image frames (F1, F2). Once a match is found, the current reference image (RF1) is exchanged for a matching frame from the stream. The matcher (M) then attempts matching against subsequent frames in the stream by now using said matched frame as a new reference image. Once a further frame (Fm) is found that matches said new reference image, said further frame (Fm) is output as a best match.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventors: Marinus Bastiaan Van Leeuwen, Jelte Peter Vink
