Leukemia detection from blood smears

Leukemia is a highly fatal hematologic cancer which starts in blood-forming tissue, such as bone marrow and triggers high production of immature and abnormal shaped blood cells. Skilled medical officers or microbiologists are required to diagnose leukemia from blood smears. This poses a problem in r...
