A procedure for automated analysis of cervical smears has been implemented in an image cytometry system. Smears are described exclusively in terms of global and contextual information extracted by pattern-recognition algorithms and represented by a vector of proportions of cellular object types. Linear discriminant functions, based on a Fisher criterion, are derived to classify smears with a cross-section of diagnoses into two broad categories, normal and abnormal. Results obtained from 83 smears indicate 78% correct classification. In contrast to most automated systems, good classification results were obtained in normal smears with benign changes caused by inflammation and with postmenopausal atrophia and in abnormals with mild dysplasia. These findings suggest that contextual analysis may be sensitive to subtle changes in cellular morphology and to progressive patterns of dysplasia. When used with standard isolated cell analysis, contextual analysis may provide additional complementary information for automated cervical prescreening.
