Figure 2,3 — High power images of original hematoxylin and eosin stained group of benign melanocytic cells were scanned into Aperio ScanScope (A). All groups underwent a standardization stage to account for differences in staining between slides (B). The image was digitally analyzed and features extracted. An example readily shows such features as calculated nuclear area (referred to as area) and Delaunay triangulation, values which both tended to be larger in melanoma than in nevi (C). An approximation for whole cell borders (referred to as region) was also used (D). Many more features were also analyzed. Figure 2(A–D) demonstrates melanoma cells.
