A systematic comparison of deep learning methods for Gleason grading and scoring.

Prostate cancer is the second most frequent cancer in men worldwide after lung cancer. Its diagnosis is based on the identification of the Gleason score that evaluates the abnormality of cells in glands through the analysis of the different Gleason patterns within tissue samples. The recent advancements in computational pathology, a domain aiming at developing algorithms to automatically analyze digitized histopathology images, lead to a large variety and availability of datasets and algorithms for Gleason grading and scoring.

Performance Evaluation of Deep Learning-Based Prostate Cancer Screening Methods in Histopathological Images: Measuring the Impact of the Model's Complexity on Its Processing Speed.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer among men worldwide, with almost 1.3 million new cases and 360,000 deaths in 2018. As it has been estimated, its mortality will double by 2040, mostly in countries with limited resources.
