Clinical and biological applications of image analysis in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas

Hematol Oncol. 1998 Mar;16(1):15-28. doi: 10.1002/(sici)1099-1069(1998030)16:1<15::aid-hon618>3.0.co;2-j.

Abstract

The technical procedures and the main applications of image analysis in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma pathology have been described by reviewing the pertinent literature. With the advent of sophisticated computer-based technology, the possibility of objectively evaluating cell morphology, in situ marker expression, DNA indexes, and complex structural features may become a relevant part of the pathologist's expertise.
