An Algorithm to Improve Data Accuracy of PMs Concentration Measured with IoT Devices
Air pollution is responsible for increased morbidity and mortality due to respiratory problems mainly caused by long term exposure. Although the emissions of principal air pollutants are highly regulated, there is a lack of information about the real extent of personal exposure for an accurate health impact assessment. To tackle these challenges, local air pollution…
Read More An Algorithm for Automatic Measurement of KI-67 Proliferation Index in Digital Images of Breast Tissue
This paper proposes an algorithm aimed at quantifying the expression of KI-67 protein in digital images of breast biopsy tissue samples obtained through an optical microscope. The algorithm allows to obtain a report on the quantity of non-proliferating and proliferating cells through the detection and quantification of KI-67. The sample analysis via software aims to…
Read More Exploring the use of Manual Liquid Based Cytology, Cell Block with Immunomarkers p16/ki67, VIA and HPV DNA Testing as a Strategy for Cervical Cancer Screening in LMIC
Cervical cancer is the 4th most common cancer in women in low to middle income group countries (LMIC). Various methods for screening cervical cancer are practiced, such as the Conventional Pap Smear (CPS), Liquid Based Cytology with its ancillary techniques like Cell Block with immunocytochemistry. VIA is another method which is being advocated as a…
