Digital Pathology with AI for Cervical Biopsies: Diagnostic Accuracy at the CIN2+ Threshold.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Histopathologic grading of cervical biopsies is subject to interobserver variability, particularly at the CIN2+ treatment threshold. We evaluated a deep learning system (EagleEye) for detecting CIN2+ (CIN2, CIN3, ACIS, invasive carcinoma) on hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) whole-slide images (WSIs) and compared its performance with independent pathologists, including an AI-assisted workflow. Spatial correspondence with p16 staining was preliminarily assessed. Methods: Ninety-nine archived cervical punch biopsies from a single university hospital, originally diagnosed as Normal (n = 19), CIN1 (n = 20), CIN2 (n = 20), CIN3 (n = 20), or adenocarcinoma in situ (ACIS; n = 20), were digitized in a deliberately spectrum-balanced design.
