A Novel Validated Real-World Dataset for the Diagnosis of Multiclass Serous Effusion Cytology according to the International System and Ground-Truth Validation Data.

Introduction: The application of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in serous fluid cytology is lacking due to the deficiency in standardized publicly available datasets. Here, we develop a novel public serous effusion cytology dataset. Furthermore, we apply AI algorithms on it to test its diagnostic utility and safety in clinical practice.
