Abstract

We report a deep learning-based framework which can be used to screen thin blood smears for sickle-cell-disease using images captured by a smartphone-based microscope. This framework first uses a deep neural network to enhance and standardize the smartphone images to the quality of a diagnostic level benchtop microscope, and a second deep neural network performs cell segmentation. We experimentally demonstrated that this technique can achieve 98% accuracy with an area-under-the-curve (AUC) of 0.998 on a blindly tested dataset made up of thin blood smears coming from 96 patients, of which 32 had been diagnosed with sickle cell disease.
