Abstract
A method of image classification is used for classifying images of stained cell nuclei. For each nucleus, the total integrated optical density is calculated and a histogram calculated. The image is then classified by automatically identifying peaks, identifying the lowest peak as a 2C peak and classifying the image as at least one of diploid, tetraploid, aneuploid or polyploid based on the number of peaks and the count at an integrated optical densities above the 2C peak.
