Abstract

In slide based automation of cervical cytology the first stage of analysis involves finding possibly suspicious cells, or areas on the slide with these types of cells. By using a television based system such as the Leyden Television Analysis System (LEYTAS), a number of detection methods can be applied to rapidly screen a large number of fields automatically for suspicious cells. In this paper, results using a parameter based on increased nuclear DNA content of cells are given and a second detection method based on a chromatin pattern feature, called chromatin contrast, is discussed. Two blind trials on 41 positive and 22 negative cervical slides, using the Leyden Television Analysis System to detect suspicious cells with an increased nuclear DNA content, were promising. In 1 of the 41 positive cases no suspicious cells were found. In the negative specimens, suspicious cells were detected in 1 of 9 cases and 1 of 13 cases, with the two detection parameters investigated. These findings are discussed and some automatic artefact rejection procedures with preliminary results are given.
