Abstract
Abstract
Biological dosimetry is used to estimate one’s dose by biological phenomena. The most popular and ‘gold standard’ phenomenon is the appearance of dicentric chromosomes in metaphases. The metaphase finder is a tool for biological dosimetry that finds metaphase cells on glass slides. It consists of an automated microscope, auto-focus system, X-Y stage, camera and computer. It does the image analysis of the microscopic images of the glass slides and displays the positions of metaphase cells. In this paper, the author reported that the prototype of AI-implemented metaphase finder was combined with the microscope system by file sharing and image transfer program, and that the metaphase finder system’s accuracy was compared with previous non-AI system, using the same samples.
