Abstract
- Metastasis is responsible for 90% of all cancer-related deaths in humans, and the development of a rapid and promising solution for an early diagnosis of metastasis is required. The present study proposed a promising method combined with scanned laser pico-projection technique and typical texture feature (i.e., contrast, correlation, energy, entropy, and homogeneity) extraction of gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) image processing model to classify the low- and high-metastatic cancer cells using five common cancer adenocarcinoma cell line pairs (i.e., HeLa/HeLa-S3, CL1-0/CL1-5, OVTW59-P0/OVTW59-P4, and CE81T-FNlow/CE81T-FNhigh cell lines). Highly metastatic cancer cells essentially have the highest levels of disorder. Both contrast and entropy refer to the degree of disorder, and energy and homogeneity refer to the degree of uniformity. These four texture features can be effective evaluation indexes for disorder in cancer cells responding to metastatic ability. Texture feature extraction forms reflection images, which are recorded with scanned laser pico-projection system; they effectively bridge the gap in information derived from transmission images. The low- and high-metastatic cancer cells are statistically and effectively classified from the texture feature of GLCM through transmission and reflection images taken with scanned laser pico-projection system. In particular, it only requires several seconds after producing a confluent monolayer of cells and achieves the rapid method with a more reliable diagnostic performance for metastatic ability of cancer cells in vitro or ex vivo.
