AI-enhanced Cell Classification for Hematological Testing

Differential blood counts are a cornerstone in hematological diagnostics, used to identify and monitor leukemia, inflammatory responses, and infections. While automated systems based on flow cytometry are limited in their ability to detect subtle morphological abnormalities, manual microscopy is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

To address this gap, we configured a powerful AI-powered workflow in close collaboration with our users. This workflow enables automatic acquisition of Romanowsky-stained slides and preclassification of blood cells.

The software offers a real-time image gallery that conveniently displays either selected cell classes or all detected objects, supporting an efficient and structured workflow. For fast expert review, the dedicated RapidScore keyboard enables quick validation and reclassification of pre-identified cells. During the review process, additional cell classes can be effortlessly included, allowing users to adapt the classification dynamically and with maximum flexibility.

Customization Packages

MetaSystems software provides, among other functions, features to assist users with image processing. These include, but are not limited to, the use of machine and deep learning algorithms for pattern recognition. The output generated in this process should be regarded as preliminary suggestions and, in any case, mandatorily requires review and assessment by trained experts.

MetaSystems offers Customization Packages for application workflows that have been successfully implemented for customer labs using standard Metafer platform functionality. It is expected that they can be implemented for other customer labs using similar workflows and slide preparation procedures. If a Customization Package is purchased, MetaSystems product specialists will – based on their experience from other similar application cases - support the customer lab in adapting the Metafer software configuration to their needs. The performance of the solution will depend on the quality of the customer slides and the expertise of the users, MetaSystems cannot specify or guarantee any performance parameters. The validation of the solution for clinical use is the sole responsibility of the customer lab.
