The alignment of tissue between histopathological whole-slide-images (WSI) is crucial for research and clinical applications. Advances in computing, deep learning, and availability of large WSI datasets have revolutionised WSI analysis. Therefore, the current state-of-the-art in WSI registration is unclear. To address this, we conducted the ACROBAT challenge, based on the largest WSI registration dataset to date, including 4,212 WSIs from 1,152 breast cancer patients. The challenge objective was to align WSIs of tissue that was stained with routine diagnostic immunohistochemistry to its H&E-stained counterpart. We compare the performance of eight WSI registration algorithms, including an investigation of the impact of different WSI properties and clinical covariates. We find that conceptually distinct WSI registration methods can lead to highly accurate registration performances and identify covariates that impact performances across methods. These results establish the current state-of-the-art in WSI registration and guide researchers in selecting and developing methods.

Multi-stain whole-slide-image (WSI) registration is an active field of research. It is unclear, however, how the current WSI registration methods would perform on a real-world data set. AutomatiC Registration Of Breast cAncer Tissue (ACROBAT) challenge is held to verify the performance of the current WSI registration methods by using a new dataset that originates from routine diagnostics to assess real-world applicability. In this report, we present our solution for the ACROBAT challenge. We employ a two-step approach including rigid and non-rigid transforms. The experimental results show that…
The analysis of FFPE tissue sections stained with haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) or immunohistochemistry (IHC) is an essential part of the pathologic assessment of surgically resected breast cancer specimens. IHC staining has been broadly adopted into diagnostic guidelines and routine workflows to manually assess status and scoring of several established biomarkers, including ER, PGR, HER2 and KI67. However, this is a task that can also be facilitated by computational pathology image analysis methods. The research in computational pathology has recently made numerous substantial advances, often …

Computational pathology methods have the potential to improve access to precision medicine, as well as the reproducibility and accuracy of pathological diagnoses. Particularly the analysis of whole-slide-images (WSIs) of immunohistochemically (IHC) stained tissue sections could benefit from computational pathology methods. However, scoring biomarkers such as KI67 in IHC WSIs often necessitates the detection of areas of invasive cancer. Training cancer detection models often requires annotations, which is time-consuming and therefore costly. Currently, cancer regions are typically annotated in …

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used in various medical imaging tasks. However, due to the intrinsic locality of convolution operation, CNNs generally cannot model long-range dependencies well, which are important for accurately identifying or mapping corresponding breast lesion features computed from unregistered multiple mammograms. This motivates us to leverage the architecture of Multi-view Vision Transformers to capture long-range relationships of multiple mammograms from the same patient in one examination. For this purpose, we employ local Transformer blocks t…
Advances in imaging and early cancer detection have increased interest in magnetic resonance (MR) guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) technologies for cancer treatment. MRgFUS ablation treatments could reduce surgical risks, preserve organ tissue/function, and improve patient quality of life. However, surgical resection and histological analysis remain the gold standard to assess cancer treatment response. For non-invasive ablation therapies such as MRgFUS, the treatment response must be determined through MR imaging biomarkers. However, current MR biomarkers are inconclusive and have not been …
