IsletSwipe

IsletSwipe is a professional tool for communicating the expert opinions on microscopic images of isolated pancreatic islets. The application is available for free download, but the users from around the world must be individually registered into the working group in order to get access to the actual content. The application allows users to classify individual images and their content (islets) into categories, which are statistically evaluated. The purpose of the application is to build a consensus on the image quality and islet borders in order to improve the web service IsletNet.

The total number of images and islets awaiting the user in the active set is visualized at the top. Three images of the active set are uploaded. For each microscopic image the quality is to be evaluated. A simple swipe gesture can be used by the user to classify contours of selected individual islets marked by arrows as true or false, or to abstain from evaluating. The overall quality of the islet contours are then evaluated. The application is designed as game with Hall of fame and awards.
