Spectral imaging microscopy and deep-learning-based image analysis was applied and found to be a powerful tool that enables in situ analysis of macrophage phenotypes and other cells in human liver biopsies and may lead to more personalized therapeutic approaches in the future.


TORONTO (PRWEB)

Join Heather Stevenson, MD, PhD, Associate Professor, Dept. of Pathology and Director of Transplantation Pathology at The University of Texas Medical Branch in a live session on Tuesday, July 14, 2020 at 11am EDT (4pm BST/UK).

Intrahepatic macrophages influence the composition of the microenvironment, host immune response to liver injury and development of fibrosis. Using a multiplex protocol, Dr. Stevenson’s group stained biopsies collected from representative patients with chronic liver diseases, including chronic hepatitis C, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and autoimmune hepatitis. Spectral imaging microscopy and deep-learning-based image analysis was applied and found to be a powerful tool that enables in situ analysis of macrophage phenotypes and other cells in human liver biopsies and may lead to more personalized therapeutic approaches in the future.

In the webinar, Dr. Stevenson will present her group’s findings from an analysis of five different antibodies commonly observed on macrophage populations (CD68, MAC387, CD163, CD14 and CD16).
