Independent assessment of a deep learning system for lymph node metastasis detection on the Augmented Reality Microscope.

Several machine learning algorithms have demonstrated high predictive capability in the identification of cancer within digitized pathology slides. The Augmented Reality Microscope (ARM) has allowed these algorithms to be seamlessly integrated within the pathology workflow by overlaying their inferences onto its microscopic field of view in real time. We present an independent assessment of the LYmph Node Assistant (LYNA) models, state-of-the-art algorithms for the identification of breast cancer metastases in lymph node biopsies, optimized for usage on the ARM.
