Quantitative Nuclear Histomorphometry Predicts Molecular Subtype and Clinical Outcome in Medulloblastomas: Preliminary Findings.

Molecular subtypes of medulloblastoma [Sonic Hedgehog (SHH), Wingless/INT (WNT), Group 3, and Group 4] are defined by common patterns of gene expression. These differential gene expression patterns appear to result in different histomorphology and prognosis. Quantitative histomorphometry is a well-known method of computer-aided pathology image analysis.
