Methods
a score provided by manual review of each sample by a pathologist observer and by an automated cellular imaging system. Analyses of MCM7 scores indicated a high degree of concordance and distribution between the observer- and machine-generated MCM7 labeling indexes. MCM7 expression was significantly higher in high-grade serous carcinomas than in serous borderline tumors or other histological subtypes of ovarian cancer. For both observer- and machine-derived scores, univariate analyses indicated the significant association of a high MCM7 labeling index with better progression-free survival in high-grade serous carcinomas. These
