It is the 4th most common cause of cancer \ mortality worldwide, and the 6th most common malignancy overall. \ \ A patient\'s prognosis increases markedly with the speed of diagnosis \ and treatment, however the rates of occurrence are increasing at an \ alarming rate which will commensurately challenge the medical \ community. \ \ There are already several tools and technologies available to assist \ pathologists, however the current approach is ultimately constrained by \ a number of factors including: the rising demand, a limited supply \ of skilled specialists, the time required to grow/replenish this talent \ pool, and human factors which influence quality, accuracy, consistency, \ and speed (timeliness). \ ') st.markdown('#### Claim ') st.markdown('\ It is the desire of this project team to increase the prognosis of \ hepatocellular cancer patients.\ \ Machine Learning techniques, specifically Deep Learning and \ Explainability (XAI) show promise in mimic\'ing the role of the \ pathologist. \ \ MLOps promises to establish a baseline for performance\ and a basis for continuous process improvement. This could greatly \ reduce human factor elements while accelerating the times and \ increasing the volumes of response.\ \ As a minimum, an ML application can serve as a supplement to the\ pathologist, a teaching aide, a verification tool, or as a framework\ for community collaboration and the advancement of quality diagnosis.\ ') st.markdown('#### Objectives ') st.markdown('\ A key objective of this project is to produce a deployed app that will\ enable pathologists to upload a digital liver histopathology slide\ image and then receive an output that classifies the segment as\ malignant (or not). \ \ The utilization of Machine Learning and Explainability Techniques \ to the traditional process of Liver Histopathology and HCC Diagnosis \ could serve to greatly reduce the time to diagnosis and treatment. \ \ ') ''' st.markdown( """ Home page """, unsafe_allow_html=True, ) '''
