===Year 3: High-throughput truthing of microscope slides to validate artificial intelligence algorithms analyzing digital scans of pathology slides: data collection to create the medical device development tool (MDDT)===

In Year 3 of the High Throughput Truthing project, the team will collect data at various collaborating sites and conferences. [[BR]]
Check out our completed work from [HighThroughputTruthingYear1 Year 1] and [HighThroughputTruthingYear2 Year 2] in the HTT project [[BR]]


'''Pitch:'''::
     We are crowdsourcing pathologists to collect data (images + pathologist annotations) that can be qualified by the FDA/CDRH medical device development tool program (MDDT). If successful, the MDDT qualified data along with a statistical software package for data analysis would be available to any algorithm developer to be used to validate their algorithm performance in a submission to the FDA/CDRH.


Researchers from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, alongside academic collaborators, are collecting pathologist annotations as data for AI/ML algorithm validation for tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) detection and quantitation. We are asking board-certified anatomic pathologists and anatomic pathology residents to score ROIs as part of a research study. We anticipate that one batch of 80 ROIs will take participants a total of 30 minutes plus intake and training that can be done ahead of time. The data are intended to inform the agency’s approach to novel algorithm validation, ensuring high quality commercial products with a faster FDA-pipeline to approval.
