A new research paper explores how the initial tissue detection step in histopathology artifact detection pipelines can significantly impact the accuracy of diffusion-based models. By testing different tissue detection methods on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) slides, researchers found that replacing a standard Otsu detection method with an entropy-based approach drastically reduced false positives from 0.102 to 0.016 without compromising sensitivity. This improvement was attributed to the composition of the training pool, particularly the exclusion of normal tissue with large clear spaces, rather than the pool's size. The findings suggest that the choice of tissue detection method is crucial for quality control in one-class artifact detection models. AI
