SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO PROCESS ELECTRONIC IMAGES TO PRODUCE A TISSUE MAP VISUALIZATION
Systems and methods are disclosed for analyzing an image of a slide corresponding to a specimen, the method including receiving at least one digitized image of a pathology specimen; determining, using the digitized image at an artificial intelligence (AI) system, at least one salient feature, the at least one salient comprising a biomarker, cancer, cancer grade, parasite, toxicity, inflammation, and/or cancer sub-type; determining, at the AI system, a salient region overlay for the digitized image, wherein the AI system indicates a value for each pixel; and suppressing, based on the value for each pixel, one or more non-salient regions of the digitized image.
1 . A computer-implemented method for analyzing an image of a slide corresponding to a pathology specimen, the method comprising:
determining, using an artificial intelligence (AI) system, a salient region overlay for at least one digitized image of the pathology specimen;
representing the salient region overlay by a by a binary segmentation of the at least one digitized image indicating if each pixel has a salient feature present;
suppressing, based on a diagnostic value for each pixel, one or more non-salient regions of the at least one digitized image; and
normalizing the salient region overlay to obtain a variable.
2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising converting the salient region overlay into a tissue map.
3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising: detecting the salient feature using the AI system on the at least one digitized image to produce a tissue visualization.
4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one digitized image comprises related case information, patient information and information from a clinical system.
5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising alerting a user when the salient region overlay is available.
6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising resizing the salient region overlay to a same size as the at least one digitized image.
7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
indicating, by the AI system, a diagnostic value for each pixel.
8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising representing the salient region overlay by a semantic segmentation of the at least one digitized image indicating a score for each pixel.
9 . The computer-implement method of claim 1 , further comprising developing a pipeline to archive a plurality of processed images and/or prospective patient data.
10 . A system for analyzing an image of a slide corresponding to a pathology specimen, the system comprising:
at least one memory storing instructions; and
at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising:

representing the salient region overlay by a by a binary segmentation of the at least one digitized image indicating if each pixel has a salient feature present;
suppressing, based on a diagnostic value for each pixel, one or more non-salient regions of the at least one digitized image; and
normalizing the salient region overlay to obtain a variable.
11 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising converting the salient region overlay into a tissue map.
12 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising: detecting the salient feature using the AI system on the at least one digitized image to produce a tissue visualization.
13 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the at least one digitized image comprises related case information, patient information and information from a clinical system.
14 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising alerting a user when the salient region overlay is available.
15 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising resizing the salient region overlay to a same size as the at least one digitized image.
16 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising: indicating, by the AI system, a diagnostic value for each pixel.
