A method for detecting a potential presence of a fluorescence pattern type on an organ section via immunofluorescence microscopy and digital image processing, the method comprising: providing an organ section on a slide, incubating the section with a liquid patient sample potentially including primary antibodies and secondary antibodies labelled with a fluorescent dye, acquiring a fluorescence image of the organ section, determining, by segmentation of the fluorescence image via a first neural network, a sub-area of the fluorescence image relevant to formation of the fluorescence pattern type, determining, via a second neural network, the measure of confidence indicating an actual presence of the fluorescence pattern type, determining, validity information indicating a degree of a validity of the measure of confidence, and outputting the measure of confidence of the actual presence of the fluorescence pattern type and of the validity information.
