New framework improves leukemia cell classification using AI models

Researchers have developed a new framework for classifying leukemia cells using a two-stage pipeline that leverages pretrained vision foundation models. The first stage performs a binary classification of leukemia versus non-leukemia using over 122,000 images, while the second stage conditionally classifies positive cases into Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) using nearly 70,000 images. The study benchmarks three encoders—DinoBloom, BiomedCLIP, and CLIP—evaluating their performance with linear probing, Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), and a Retrieval-Augmented Classification (RAC) module to assess the impact of domain-specific pretraining and cost-effective adaptation methods on generalization across different microscopy datasets.
