Detection, along with quantitative morphology feature extraction, accurately identified Lewy-type synucleinopathy in early-stage Parkinson’s disease biopsy specimens. The training and validation of the algorithms were based on expert pathologist annotated biopsy images, the company said. The validation used a separate set of confirmed biopsy specimens.
