Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for automatically detecting and classifying tumor regions in a tissue slide. The method generally includes obtaining a digitized tissue slide from a tissue slide database and determining, based on output from a tissue classification module, a type of tissue of shown in the digitized tissue slide. The method further includes determining, based on output from a tumor classification model for the type of tissue, a region of interest (ROI) of the digitized tissue slide and generating a classified slide showing the ROI of the digitized tissue slide and an estimated diameter of the ROI. The method further includes displaying on an image display unit, the classified slide and user interface (UI) elements enabling a pathologist to enter input related to the classified slide.
