Zusammenfassung

Background In this present study, we aimed to analyze the spatial organization of a cervical cancer (CX) and the relation of the tumor invasion front and the infiltration with CD3 positive T-cells. Methods 84 serial sections from CX were stained with H&E and immunohistochemically against the cervical p16 and the T-cell marker CD3. Sections were passed through an image processing chain in order to obtain a reconstructed tissue volume including both automatically delineated tumor and T-cell volume segments. For invasion front analysis mean curvature was used, which in turn was related to the respective local minim…
