ABSTRACT
Liver transplantation is an effective treatment for end-stage liver disease, acute liver failure, and primary hepatic malignancy. However, the limited availability of donor organs remains a challenge. Severe large-droplet fat (LDF) macrovesicular steatosis, characterized by cytoplasmic replacement with large fat vacuoles, can lead to liver transplant complications. Artificial intelligence models, such as segmentation and detection models, are being developed to detect LDF hepatocytes. The Segment-Anything Model, utilizing the DEtection TRansformer architecture, has the ability to segment objects without prior knowledge of size or shape. We investigated the Segment-Anything Model's potential to detect LDF hepatocytes in liver biopsies. Pathologist-annotated specimens were used to evaluate model performance. The model showed high sensitivity but compromised specificity due to similarities with other structures. Filtering algorithms were developed to improve specificity. Integration of the Segment-Anything Model with rule-based algorithms accurately detected LDF hepatocytes. Improved diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases can be achieved through advancements in artificial intelligence algorithms for liver histology analysis.
