Automated diagnostic support system with deep learning algorithms for distinction of Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms using peripheral blood specimen

Abstract Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (Ph-negative MPNs) such as polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis are characterized by abnormal proliferation of mature bone marrow cell lineages. Since various non-hematologic disorders...

Sumario:Abstract Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (Ph-negative MPNs) such as polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis are characterized by abnormal proliferation of mature bone marrow cell lineages. Since various non-hematologic disorders can also cause leukocytosis, thrombocytosis and polycythemia, the detection of abnormal peripheral blood cells is essential for the diagnostic screening of Ph-negative MPNs. We sought to develop an automated diagnostic support system of Ph-negative MPNs. Our strategy was to combine the complete blood cell count and research parameters obtained by an automated hematology analyzer (Sysmex XN-9000) with morphological parameters that were extracted using a convolutional neural network deep learning system equipped with an Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost)-based decision-making algorithm. The developed system showed promising performance in the differentiation of PV, ET, and MF with high accuracy when compared with those of the human diagnoses, namely: > 90% sensitivity and > 90% specificity. The calculated area under the curve of the ROC curves were 0.990, 0.967, and 0.974 for PV, ET, MF, respectively. This study is a step toward establishing a universal automated diagnostic system for all types of hematology disorders.
