Abstract
Background: Pathology departments and biobanks are increasingly using
Digital Pathology (DP) images for sharing of research results, ring trials,
education, fast second-opinion diagnostics, pathology panels, digital
back-up of slides, image analysis algorithms, and etcetera. To fully
exploit the potential of DP, the BIOPOOL project develops software for
extracting and gathering DP slides with well defined associated data
from multiple biobanks and pathology archives to create pools of
images, as biobanks networks, on which clinicians and researchers can
search for reference, score for similarities with their own images using
an innovative Content Based Image Retrieval system, and perform indepth
image analyses. Methods: The BIOPOOL Proof-of-Concept (PoC)
with minimal, critical functionality serves as the basis on which the
system will be further developed. For this PoC we are studying existing
DP image formats and systems that could be of use, designed both PoC
and end-phase ...
