New framework improves cell nuclei segmentation models for renal pathology

Researchers have developed a novel human-in-the-loop framework to enhance cell nuclei segmentation models for renal pathology. This framework combines pseudo-labels from existing models with expert annotations of varying difficulty levels. The study systematically evaluated nine cell segmentation model configurations using seven fine-tuning strategies, demonstrating that incorporating data across different difficulty levels significantly improves model performance. LSP-DETR achieved the highest F1 score with hard-case fine-tuning, while StarDist showed the most substantial improvement with medium-case fine-tuning. AI

IMPACT Enhances the accuracy of AI models for critical tasks in medical pathology, potentially improving diagnostic capabilities.

    Comprehensive Evaluation and Fine-Tuning of Foundational Cell Nuclei Segmentation Models in Renal Pathology

    arXiv:2610.07711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate nuclei instance segmentation is essential for quantitative renal pathology, yet general-purpose models often struggle with low contrast, dense nuclei, complex morphology, and strong background staining. In this work, we ext…
