Annotations, ontologies, and whole slide images : Development of an annotated ontology-driven whole slide image library of normal and abnormal human tissue

Results: Systemized nomenclature of medicine clinical terms (SNOMED CT) was chosen, and the annotations were linked to its codes and terms. Two hundred WSI were collected and annotated, resulting in 17,497 annotations, covering a total area of 302.19 cm2, equivalent to 107,7 gigapixels. Ninety-five unique SNOMED CT codes were used. The time taken to annotate a WSI varied fr
