Area of Science:

Transplantation research
Medical imaging analysis
Machine learning applications

Background:

Significant liver steatosis negatively impacts liver transplant outcomes.
Current assessment of donor liver steatosis relies on subjective visual inspection.
Objective, accurate methods are needed to evaluate donor liver steatosis.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a rapid, robust, accurate, and cost-effective method for assessing liver steatosis.
To utilize smartphone photography and machine learning for objective liver steatosis evaluation.

Main Methods:

Collected smartphone photographs and liver biopsies from 192 adult brain death donor livers.
Applied color calibration, segmentation, and feature extraction to liver images.
Utilized a random forest machine learning classifier (LiverColor project) for analysis.

Main Results:

The machine learning model achieved an Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUROC) of 0.74.
The model demonstrated 85% accuracy in determining macrosteatosis at a 30% threshold.
Analysis included 362 photographs and 7240 image patches.

Conclusions:

Machine learning analysis of smartphone liver images accurately determines steatosis.
This approach offers a promising tool for objective donor liver assessment.
The LiverColor project provides a foundation for improved liver transplantation protocols.
