Artificial Intelligence for Dermatopathology: Current Trends and the Road Ahead

Chen, Simon B, Novoa, Roberto A·2022·Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI), including deep learning methods that leverage neural network-based algorithms, hold significant promise for dermatopathology and other areas of diagnostic pathology in research and clinical practice. There has been significant progress over past several years in applying AI to analyzing digital histopathology images for diagnosis. While much work in AI analysis of histopathology data remains investigational, recent regulatory agency approval in Europe and United States of AI-assisted tools for clinical use in histopathologic diagnosis of prostate and breast cancer herald broader movement of AI into the clinical diagnostic realm of anatomic pathology, including dermatopathology. However, significant challenges remain in translating AI from research into clinical practice, including algorithmic real-world performance, robustness to variation in data sets and practice settings, effective integration into clinical workflows, and cost effectiveness. This review introduces core concepts and terminology in AI, and assesses current progress and challenges in applying AI to dermatopathology.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
