  • Publication number: 20230346249
    Abstract: Systems and methods for estimating quantitative histological features of a subject's tissue based on medical images of the subject are provided. For instance, quantitative histological features of a tissue are estimated by comparing medical images of the subject to a trained model that relates histological features to multiple different medical image contrast types, whether from one medical imaging modality or multiple different medical imaging modalities. In general, the trained model is generated based on medical images of ex vivo samples, in vitro samples, in vivo samples or combinations thereof, and is based on histological features extracted from those samples. A machine learning algorithm, or other suitable learning algorithm, is used to generate the trained model. The trained model is not patient-specific and thus, once generated, can be applied to any number of different individual subjects.
