Abstract

Two techniques of the image analysis of Papanicolaou stains are compared in this paper—standard deviation and standard deviation ratio for cell nuclei. The image analysis is based on diagonal details obtained from multiresolutional analysis using wavelets. Two best wavelets are presented ‘coif2’ and ‘sym1.’ Results show the importance of standard deviation ratios and smallest diagonal details for classification of cell together with cell nucleus area. Classification of cells allows rapid discrimination of cells for further analysis of them by cytoscreener.
