Kind: research · Impact: low

## In brief

- Artificial intelligence can help identify cells in digital pathology images.
- Densely packed tissue remains a challenge: neighboring cells may be merged, counted twice or missed entirely.
- Researchers at Koç University have developed a training strategy that improves detection in these images.

## Why it matters

Accurate cell detection in pathology images underpins automated tissue analysis, so better handling of crowded tissue could make AI-assisted pathology more reliable.
