Fragile perinatal and fetal brains are the rule rather than the exception for developmental neuropathologists. Retrieving the fresh brain from the skull and examining early fetal, macerated or severely hydrocephalic brains after fixation can be a challenge. Textbooks on neurodevelopmental pathology mention these challenges to macroscopic examination of the developing central nervous system only in passing, but many perinatal pathologists recognize this diagnostic problem.

- The study explores the use of deep learning algorithms to enhance the detection of metastases in breast cancer patients' lymph node tissue sections, aiming to improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency compared to traditional pathologist evaluations.
- Conducted as part of the CAMELYON16 challenge, participants developed algorithms using a dataset of whole-slide images, and performance was assessed against a test set while also evaluating a group of pathologists under time constraints.
- Results showed a wide range of algorithm effectiveness, with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve varying from 0.556 to 0.994, indicating potential for high diagnostic accuracy with automated methods.
