Excerpt

Standard cancer diagnosis and prognosis procedures such as the Nottingham Grading System for breast cancer incorporate a criterion based on cell morphology known as cytonuclear atypia. Therefore, algorithms able to precisely extract the cell nuclei are a requirement in computer-aided diagnosis applications. …
