Abstract (en)

[origin: EP4120119A1] A method (100) for quantifying and/or analyzing organoids from a digital image (2) of a biological sample (1), comprising the steps of:• mapping (110), by a first neural network (3a) and/or a first section (4a) of one neural network (4), the image (2) to bounding boxes (5) that enclose instances of organoids;• mapping (120), by a second neural network (3b) and/or a second section (4b) of the one neural network (4), for each bounding box (5), the content of this bounding box (5), and/or a work product of the first neural network (3a) and/or first section (4a) that relates to this bounding box (5), to one or more masks (6) that identify the image pixels belonging to each instance (7) of an organoid; and• evaluating (130), from the one or more masks (6), a number (7a) of instances (7) of organoids in the image, and/or at least one physical and/or biological property (7b) of at least one instance (7) of an organoid.
