CRLM liver tissue segmentation

Whole slide image (WSI) tissue segmentation for hematoxylin and eosin sections of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). This model produces the tissue mask used upstream of the desmoplastic status and survival pipeline (computationalpathologygroup/pathology-liver-survival).

Method

The model is a U-Net (Keras backend), depth 5, branching factor 5, with batch normalization and valid padding. It is trained with categorical cross-entropy on 412 by 412 patches at 0.5 micron pixel spacing, with RGB range normalization to 0 to 1. Inference is run through the applynetwork_multiproc.py script from the pathology-fast-inference code base.

Two networks run in sequence:

  1. bg_network.net (28 MB): background versus tissue segmentation, run first at 2.0 micron spacing to create the tissue mask.
  2. nn1_best_model.net (87 MB): the main multi-class tissue segmentation, run at 0.5 micron spacing using the tissue mask from step 1.

The network configuration in the code repository maps mask labels to 10 output classes. The exact tissue class definitions should be confirmed with the authors and against the Grand Challenge algorithm before interpretation.
