A multi-spectral approach for scene analysis of cervical cytology smears

RK Aggarwal and JW Bacus

A multi-spectral approach for the scene analysis of cervical cytology smears, using multiple images of a scene digitized through suitably chosen color filters matched to the Papanicolaou stain, has been proposed here. This technique involves clustering of two-dimensional data for extracting cytoplasm of the epithelial cells. Its performance on an experimental data set of 233 scenes involving more than 10 types of normal and malignant epithelial cells has been compared with density and gradient thresholding techniques. This resulted in an approximate 83% rate of success compared to approximately 40% for the rest of the other techniques.
