Oyibo, P.O. (author), Agbana, T.E. (author), van Lieshout, Lisette (author), Oyibo, Wellington (author), Diehl, J.C. (author), Vdovin, Gleb (author)Traditionally, automated slide scanning involves capturing a rectangular grid of field-of-view (FoV) images which can be stitched together to create whole slide images, while the autofocusing algorithm captures a focal stack of images<br/>to determine the best in-focus image. However, these methods can be timeconsuming due to the need for X-, Y-...journal article 2024

(author), van Lieshout, Lisette (author), Andi, Wellington Oyibo (author), Vdovin, Gleb (author), Diehl, J.C. (author)For many parasitic diseases, the microscopic examination of clinical samples such as urine and stool still serves as the diagnostic reference standard, primarily because microscopes are accessible and cost-effective. However, conventional microscopy is laborious, requires highly skilled personnel, and is highly subjective. Requirements for...journal article 2022

(author), van Lieshout, Lisette (author)Conventional microscopy is the standard procedure for the diagnosis of schistosomiasis, despite its limited sensitivity, reliance on skilled personnel, and the fact that it is error prone. Here, we report the performance of the innovative (semi-)automated Schistoscope 5.0 for optical digital detection and quantification of Schistosoma...journal article 2022

(author), Adegnika, Ayola Akim (author), Agbana, T.E. (author)Diagnosis of soil-transmitted helminth (STH) and schistosome infections relies largely on conventional microscopy which has limited sensitivity, requires highly trained personnel and is error-prone. Rapid advances in miniaturization of optical systems, sensors and processors have enhanced research and development of digital and automated...review 2022

(author), Verhaegen, M.H.G. (author), Vdovin, Gleb (author)We present a simple method for the diagnosis of urinary schistosomiasis using an in-line lensless holographic microscope combined with flow cytometry technique. Using simple image processing algorithms and binary image classifier, our system provides automated detection of Schistosoma haematobium eggs in infected urine samples.
