• Authors: Santiago Toledo-Cort\'es, Diego H. Useche, and Fabio A. Gonz\'alez
• Abstract summary: The Gleason score (GS) system is the standard way of classifying prostate cancer. The pathologist looks at the arrangement of cancer cells in the prostate and assigns a score on a scale that ranges from 6 to 10. This paper presents a probabilistic deep learning ordinal classification method that can estimate the GS from a prostate WSI.

• Abstract: Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common and aggressive cancers worldwide. The Gleason score (GS) system is the standard way of classifying prostate cancer and the most reliable method to determine the severity and treatment to follow. The pathologist looks at the arrangement of cancer cells in the prostate and assigns a score on a scale that ranges from 6 to 10. Automatic analysis of prostate whole-slide images (WSIs) is usually addressed as a binary classification problem, which misses the finer distinction between stages given by the GS. This paper presents a probabilistic deep learning ordinal classification method that can estimate the GS from a prostate WSI. Approaching the problem as an ordinal regression task using a differentiable probabilistic model not only improves the interpretability of the results, but also improves the accuracy of the model when compared to conventional deep classification and regression architectures.

  We propose to leverage transfer learning from large datasets annotated by radiologists, to predict the histological score available on a small annex dataset. We compare different pretraining methods, namely weakly-supervised and self-supervised ones, to improve the prediction of the cirrhosis. This method outperforms the baseline classification of the METAVIR score, reaching an AUC of 0.84 and a balanced accuracy of 0.75.

  Pathologists diagnose and grade prostate cancer by examining tissue from needle biopsies on glass slides. Cancer's severity and risk of metastasis are determined by the Gleason grade, a score based on the organization and morphology of prostate cancer glands. This paper proposes an automated workflow that follows pathologists' textitmodus operandi, isolating and classifying multi-scale patches of individual glands.

  Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the leading causes of death among men, with almost 1.41 million new cases and around 375,000 deaths in 2020. To perform an automatic diagnosis, prostate tissue samples are first digitized into gigapixel-resolution whole-slide images. Small subimages called patches are extracted and predicted, obtaining a patch-level classification.
