| Abstract: | Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone cancer, whose standard treatment includes pre-operative chemotherapy followed by resection. Chemotherapy response is used for prognosis and management of patients. Necrosis is routinely assessed after chemotherapy from histology slides on resection specimens, where necrosis ratio is defined as the ratio of necrotic tumor/overall tumor. Patients with necrosis ratio ≥90% are known to have a better outcome. Manual microscopic review of necrosis ratio from multiple glass slides is semiquantitative and can have intraobserver and interobserver variability. In this study, an objective and reproducible deep learning–based approach was proposed to estimate necrosis ratio with outcome prediction from scanned hematoxylin and eosin whole slide images (WSIs). To conduct the study, 103 osteosarcoma cases with 3134 WSIs were collected. Deep Multi-Magnification Network was trained to segment multiple tissue subtypes, including viable tumor and necrotic tumor at a pixel level and to calculate case-level necrosis ratio from multiple WSIs. Necrosis ratio estimated by the segmentation model highly correlates with necrosis ratio from pathology reports manually assessed by experts. Furthermore, patients were successfully stratified to predict overall survival with P = 2.4 × 10–6 and progression-free survival with P = 0.016. This study indicates that deep learning can support pathologists as an objective tool to analyze osteosarcoma from histology for assessing treatment response and predicting patient outcome. © 2023 American Society for Investigative Pathology |
