Region-Based Convolutional Neural Nets for Localization of Glomeruli in Trichrome-Stained Whole Kidney Sections

Conclusions This study presents a novel and robust application of convolutional neural nets for the localization of glomeruli in healthy and damaged trichrome-stained whole-renal section mounts and lays the groundwork for automated glomerular injury scoring.
