A study on development of automation diagnosis of liquid based cytology
Cervical cancer afflicts women worldwide. The patients’ mortality with cancer has been increased by changing to westernized dietary habit and lifestyle. In order to detect early cervical cancer, a liquid-based cytology (LBC) was used to examine the exfoliated cells collected from the cervix. This pr...
