Gland Segmentation in Histopathological Images by Deep Neural Network
Histology method is vital in the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers and many other diseases. For the analysis of histopathological images, we need to detect and segment all gland structures. These images are very challenging, and the task of segmentation is even challenging for specialists. Segmentation of glands determines the grade of cancer such as colon, breast, and prostate. Given that deep neural networks have achieved high performance in medical images, we propose a method based on the LinkNet network for gland segmentation. We found the effects of using different loss functions. By using Warwick-Qu dataset, which contains two test sets and one train set, we show that our approach is comparable to state-of-the-art methods. Finally, it is shown that enhancing the gland edges and the use of hematoxylin components can improve the performance of the proposed model.
