of a veterinarian specialized in cytology is still
necessary for achieving proper sampling.
The findings obtained through the proposed
algorithm are extremely valuable and could have
implications for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment
planning, since they can help distinguish between
these two types of tumors according to their
cytological characteristics. Additional analysis will
be performed on a larger number of samples to obtain
more robust and accurate statistics.
5 Conclusion
In this work we present a methodology for image
analysis based on mode decomposition. We have
described a simple and useful technique for particle
identification, together with a size and morphology
determination.
The proposed method was applied to images from
cytological studies, corresponding to a benign tumor
(neurofibroma) and a malignant tumor
(fibrosarcoma). The results are promising indicating
that this method can be a valuable tool for
veterinarians and could provide valuable insights into
the underlying biological differences between these
tumors. More studies will be conducted with a larger
number of samples to obtain more robust and
accurate statistical information on this particular
topic.
