• Aid doctors with time consuming task– Digitized data about
60,000x40,000 at 0.5 micron
• Can help supply “ground truth” for other modalities
• Quantifiable features facilitate data mining
Computer Aided Detection of CaP in Whole-Mount Histology

Novel Contributions
• First CAD system for detecting CaP in whole-mount histological images– Tailored to operate at low-resolution (10 micron)
• Novel nonparametric method for modeling Markov Random Fields

Low-Resolution CaP Detection
• Glands are the prominent visible structures
• Cancerous glands: 1) small, 2) surrounded by cancerous glands

Markov Random Field Basics
• Goal: Inject knowledge that malignant glands are near malignant glands
• Establish a graph connecting the glands
• Let {a1, a2,…, aN} be the gland areas
• Let {l1, l2,…, lN} be the gland labels with li{m,b}

Markov Random Field Models
• Prevalent parametric model (Ising)– Generic model used for its simplicity
• Novel nonparametric model– Generated directly from image statistics
lcib.rutgers.edu
Experiments
• Experiment 1 Evaluate CAD gland classification performance
• Experiment 2 Compare parametric (Ising) and nonparametric models
• Dataset four H&E stained whole-mount histological sections at 10 micron

Concluding Remarks
• First CAD system for detecting CaP in whole-mount histological images– Sensitivity of 0.8670 and specificity of 0.9524– Requires 4-5 minutes on a 2100×3200 image using
standard desktop PC• Introduced a novel nonparametric model for
Markov Random Fields– Better performance than Ising model– Easily extended to other biological applications

Gibbs Formulations
• Generic Ising Model
• Nonparametric Formulation
MRF Basics: Markov Properties• Let G={S,E} define a graph on N glands• Let y = {y1, y2,…, yN} be the gland areas• Let x = {x1, x2,…, xN} be the gland labels with xi{m,b}• Use maximum a posteriori estimation to obtain x• Simplify with Markov Property: p(xs|x-s)=p(xs|xr:rs) • Markov Property implies p(x) is a Gibbs distribution
• Among men in the US prostate cancer (Cap) is second most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death.
• Histological analysis provides the definite test for CaP.
• Analysis of whole mount histological sections (WMHSs) – Staging and grading of CaP– Ground truth for other modalities

Gland Classification Performance
Qualitative Results
Experiment 1: Gland Classification
• Evaluate the ability to discriminate malignant from benign glands.
• A gland whose centroid lies within the blue truth is considered cancerous, otherwise it is benign.
• Training/test data consists of four slices using a leave-one-out training
