Abstract

A pathological diagnosis support device, a pathological diagnosis support program, a pathological diagnosis support method, and a pathological diagnosis support system extract a pathological tissue for diagnosis from a pathological image and diagnose the pathological tissue. A tissue collected in a pathological inspection is stained using, for example, hematoxylin and eosin. In consideration of the state of the tissue in which a cell nucleus and its peripheral constituent items are stained in respective colors unique thereto, subimages such as a cell nucleus, a pore, cytoplasm, interstitium are extracted from the pathological image, and color information of the cell nucleus is also extracted. The subimages and the color information are stored as feature candidates so that presence or absence of a tumor and benignity or malignity of the tumor are determined.
