Cell nuclei extraction from breast cancer histopathologyimages using colour, texture, scale and shape information
Antoine Veillard, Maria S. Kulikova, Daniel Racoceanu · Diagnostic Pathology · 2013
Cell nuclei extraction from Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained breast cancer slide images is a challenging task due to the high content complexity of images: nuclei have heterogeneous appearance and overlap while the background is complex and non-homogeneous. This causes standard extraction methods to perform poorly.
