Abstract
Background
Cutaneous adnexal tumors are a diverse group of tumors arising from structures of the hair appendages. Although often benign, malignant entities occur which can metastasize and lead to patients´ death. Correct diagnosis is critical to ensure optimal treatment and best possible patient outcome. Artificial intelligence (AI) in the form of deep neural networks has recently shown enormous potential in the field of medicine including pathology, where we and others have found common cutaneous tumors can be detected with high sensitivity and specificity. To become a widely applied tool, AI approaches will also need to reliably detect and distinguish less common tumor entities including the diverse group of cutaneous adnexal tumors. Methods
To assess the potential of AI to recognize cutaneous adnexal tumors, we selected a diverse set of these entities from five German centers. The algorithm was trained with samples from four centers and then tested on slides from the fifth center. Results
The neural network was able to differentiate 14 different cutaneous adnexal tumors and distinguish them from more common cutaneous tumors (i.e. basal cell carcinoma and seborrheic keratosis). The total accuracy on the test set for classifying 248 samples into these 16 diagnoses was 89.92 %. Our findings support AI can distinguish rare tumors, for morphologically distinct entities even with very limited case numbers (< 50) for training. Conclusion
This study further underlines the enormous potential of AI in pathology which could become a standard tool to aid pathologists in routine diagnostics in the foreseeable future. The final diagnostic responsibility will remain with the pathologist.
