The incidence of urothelial carcinoma continues to rise annually, particularly among the elderly. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can significantly enhance patient survival and quality of life. Urine cytology remains a widely-used early screening method for urothelial carcinoma, but it still has limitations including sensitivity, labor-intensive procedures, and elevated cost. In recent developments, microfluidic chip technology offers an effective and efficient approach for clinical urine specimen analysis. Digital holographic microscopy, a form of quantitative phase imaging technology, captures extensive data on the refractive index and thickness of cells. The combination of microfluidic chips and digital holographic microscopy facilitates high-throughput imaging of live cells without staining. In this study, digital holographic flow cytometry was employed to rapidly capture images of diverse cell types present in urine and to reconstruct high-precision quantitative phase images for each cell type. Then, various machine learning algorithms and deep learning models were applied to categorize these cell images, and remarkable accuracy in cancer cell identification was achieved. This research suggests that the integration of digital holographic flow cytometry with artificial intelligence algorithms offers a promising, precise, and convenient approach for early screening of urothelial carcinoma.
