Abstract

The number of diagnostic pathologists is significantly small in Japan with respect to the large number of clinical cases that require pathological diagnosis. Because of this individual diagnostic pathologists are overloaded in their daily work. To improve the situation development of computer assisted diagnostic system for a pathologist will be one of the effective solutions.
