| # Introduction | |
| This dataset focuses on identifying pathological features in liver tissue samples related to liver disease. The objective is to annotate images with specific liver disease conditions: ballooning, fibrosis, inflammation, and steatosis. Each class represents a distinct morphological change within the tissue that is important for diagnosing and understanding liver disease progression. | |
| - **Ballooning**: Liver cells are enlarged and swolen. | |
| - **Fibrosis**: Liver damage due to scar tissue in the liver | |
| - **Inflammation**: A cluster of darker, denser cells. | |
| - **Steatosis**: Liver damage due to a buildup of fat. | |
| # Object Classes | |
| ## Ballooning | |
| ### Description | |
| Ballooning refers to enlarged liver cells, often appearing as large, round, clear spaces within the tissue. These spaces usually have a well-defined perimeter and a relatively homogeneous texture inside. | |
| ### Instructions | |
| - Annotate regions that exhibit large, round, clear spaces with distinct boundaries. | |
| - Do not include irregular shapes or areas that do not have clear perimeters. Focus only on the well-defined circular regions. | |
| ## Fibrosis | |
| ### Description | |
| Fibrosis is characterized by a dense, web-like pattern of tissue, often in thread-like strands. These strands are usually depicted as elongated, interwoven structures in the tissue. These tissues are often a darker shade of blue compared to surrounding tissue. | |
| ### Instructions | |
| - Outline the web-like, elongated strands within the tissue. | |
| - Avoid labeling isolated or fragmented areas that do not contribute to the fibrous network. Focus on continuous or interconnected strands. | |
| ## Inflammation | |
| ### Description | |
| Inflammation is depicted by clusters of darker, denser cellular areas. These clusters often appear as small, dense aggregations and may be irregular in shape. | |
| ### Instructions | |
| - Identify small, dense clusters that appear darker compared to surrounding tissue. | |
| - Do not annotate dispersed cells that do not form a compact group. Select regions where cellular density is markedly higher. | |
| ## Steatosis | |
| ### Description | |
| Steatosis is indicated by large droplets of fat within the liver cells, often seen as large round areas with distinct borders that are lighter in appearance. | |
| ### Instructions | |
| - Mark large, filled round areas with distinct edges, focusing on rounded, light regions. | |
| - Avoid marking smaller or misshapen areas that do not clearly represent fat droplets. Prioritize obvious, sizeable droplets. |
