Patent number: 8923598Abstract: The subject invention concerns methods for the detection, diagnosis, and/or prognosis of cancer by analyzing centrosomal features. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an image of one or more cells; selecting a region of interest in one cell; segmenting the region of interest to delineate at least one centrosomal; extracting one or more features from the segmented image; and analyzing the extracted features to diagnose cancer. In another embodiment, the progression of cancer can be predicted through analysis and classification of the extracted features. In one embodiment, the method can be performed by a quantitative cancer analysis system including a diagnosis module and/or a prognosis module. In one embodiment, the method can be performed using an image processing system.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: December 30, 2014Assignee: H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research InstituteInventors: Tatyana A. Zhukov, Dansheng Song, Melvyn S. Tockman

Patent number: 8077958Abstract: The present invention is a computer-aided pathological diagnosis method for the classification of cancer cells in a tissue specimen based on a digital cellular image of the tissue specimen. The method of the present invention includes the steps of, extracting the histological characteristic features of the cellular image using preprocessing algorithms having adaptive strategies to enhance the cellular image, declustering the extracted histological characteristic features of the cellular image to isolate the individual cells and the nuclei inside the cells, segmenting the declustered cellular image, labeling the segmented cellular image and classifying the cells in the labeled cellular image as cancer cells or non-cancer cells.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2007Date of Patent: December 13, 2011Assignee: University of South FloridaInventors: Wei Qian, Dansheng Song, Tatyana A. Zhukov
