This study combines clinical brain cancer imaging and pathological microscopy with machine learning to generate predictive maps off pathological features (i.e. new contrasts) based on segmented histological cellularity. Predictive cytological topography (PiCT) maps of cellularity were utilized to detect additional pathologically confirmed infiltrative glioblastoma cellularity beyond margins of contrast enhancement.
