Abstract

Whole-slide imaging revolutionizes the field of pathology especially in the areas of facilitation of research, long-term storages, exchange of information, and image analysis. In this process, a scanning equipment (scanner) scans the whole glass slide into a digital file. In research in esophageal adenocarcinoma or other cancers, whole-slide imaging could help in production of high-resolution images for studying and sharing of research information, assessment of tissue microarray slides as well as allowing digital image analysis of the tissue information such as level of staining (e.g., HER2) in a more efficient and objective manner. In this chapter, we will elaborate the concepts, advantages, barriers, and the operations of whole-slide imaging scanning.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 September 2020.
All research outputs
#2,976,477
of 23,031,582 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#596
of 13,177 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#69,327
of 442,391 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#39
of 1,499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,031,582 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 86th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,177 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,391 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its contemporaries.
