Inclusion criteria

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The digital recognition of tumor-positive sections succeeds with the artificial intelligence used with a sensitivity comparable to the existing conventional method (light microscopic examination of the preparation).	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
AI-based pattern recognition can be used to form clusters. It is possible to derive a relationship between certain clusters and the clinical prognosis.	—
