Deep learning-based computational cytometer using magnetically-modulated coherent imaging
2021
We present a deep learning-based high-throughput cytometer to detect rare cells in whole blood using a cost-effective and light-weight design. This system uses magnetic-particles to label and enrich the target cells. Then, a periodically-alternating magnetic-field creates time-modulated diffraction patterns of the target cells that are recorded using a lensless microscope. Finally, a custom-designed convolutional network is used to detect and classify the target cells based on their modulated spatio-temporal patterns. This cytometer was tested with cancer cells spiked in whole blood to achieve a limit-of-detection of 10 cells/mL. This compact, cost-effective and high-throughput cytometer might serve diagnostics needs in resource-limited-settings.
