Cancer detection from stained biopsies using high-speed spectral imaging.

The escalating demand for diagnosing pathological biopsies requires the procedures to be expedited and automated. The existing imaging systems for measuring biopsies only measure color, and even though a lot of effort is invested in deep learning analysis, there are still serious challenges regarding the performance and validity of the data for the intended medical setting. We developed a system that rapidly acquires spectral images from biopsies, followed by spectral classification algorithms.
