Schematic representation of AI-assisted cervical cytology image analysis. (A) Whole slide image (WSI) level: Digitalization of cervical liquid-based preparation samples; (B) Patch level: WSIs are divided into smaller patches to create feature maps, focusing on significant cellular structures and detects regions of interest (ROIs); (C) Cell segmentation: Segmentation isolates nuclei from each cell, emphasizing morphologic features; (D) Cell classification: The extracted features classify cells into categories, such as LSIL, HSIL, ASC-H, and ASCUS; (E) WSI diagnosis: The classification results are aggregated to provide an overall diagnosis at the WSI level.
