🔬 How Bone Marrow Cell Classification 1.0 works on CarbConnect®.
The AI ingests a microscopy image and returns bounding-box detections with cell-type labels (e.g., N, E-AB, Blast). The operator reviews each label via manual adjustment — confirming, correcting (e.g., reclassifying a cell as "Blast"), or flagging uncertain detections as "Unknown".
That's human-in-the-loop hematology cytology by design. The AI surfaces a fast first-pass annotation; the trained operator retains the final say and contributes the nuanced judgments that matter on edge cases.

🔬 How ZOI Pro accelerates AST on CarbConnect®.
The AI ingests a disk-diffusion plate image and measures each zone of inhibition (e.g., 18.5mm, 24.8mm, 14.1mm). The operator confirms the bacterial isolate, and the system applies the relevant breakpoint table to return per-antibiotic interpretation: S (susceptible), R (resistant), or NO_MATCH where the organism-drug combination falls outside the table.
That's human-in-the-loop AST by design. The AI handles the precise, repetitive zone measurement; the trained microbiologist contributes organism identification and clinical context. Results are documented in a structured, audit-friendly format — useful for AMR surveillance research and laboratory QC.

🧫 CarbConnect® Official Appsに「ZOI Pro」を追加しました。
ディスク拡散法（AST）は、薬剤耐性研究や臨床微生物学で広く用いられる標準的手法ですが、阻止円の手動測定は時間を要する作業です。本アプリは、プレート画像から阻止円径をAIで自動測定し、操作者が菌種を確認した時点で抗菌薬ごとのブレイクポイント判定（S/R/NO_MATCH）を返します。
CarbGeMの臨床微生物学画像AI技術を基盤とし、AMRサーベイランス研究や検査品質管理（QC）の文脈でご活用いただけます（研究用途／RUO）。

🩸 Bone Marrow Cell Classification 1.0 is now live on CarbConnect® Official Applications.
Identifying and classifying cells on a bone marrow smear is foundational hematology work — and time-intensive. This new application takes a microscopy image and returns AI-detected cells with bounding boxes and cell-type labels, directly in the browser. No environment setup, no local install.
Built on CarbGeM's hematology image-AI stack. Researchers and educators can run the model on their own image data and refine labels via manual adjustment — including flagging uncertain cells as "Unknown" to keep the annotation trail honest.
Provided for Research Use Only (RUO). Not intended as a clinical diagnostic device or substitute for professional laboratory judgment.

🧫 ZOI Pro is now live on CarbConnect® Official Applications.
Disk diffusion remains one of the most widely used methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing — and zone measurement remains a manual, time-intensive task. ZOI Pro takes a plate image and returns AI-measured inhibition zone diameters, links each measurement to the antibiotic disc, and applies clinical breakpoints once the operator confirms the bacterial identity.
Built on CarbGeM's clinical microbiology image-AI stack. Researchers refine measurements via manual adjustment; the system returns per-antibiotic results — S, R, or NO_MATCH where no matching breakpoint applies.

🔬 BiTTE® lite is now available on CarbConnect® Community Applications.
Clinical microbiology starts at the slide. BiTTE® lite is a research-use AI that takes a Gram-stain microscopy image and returns specimen type (e.g., URINE), morphology classification (e.g., GNR — Gram-negative rod), and a confidence score — directly in your browser, no local install or environment setup.
It's built on CarbGeM's BiTTE® platform for microbiology image AI, distilled into a "lite" version on the Community Apps catalog so researchers and educators can engage with the model directly on their own image data.
Provided for Research Use Only (RUO). Not intended as a clinical diagnostic device or a substitute for laboratory professional judgment.

🧫 Pick Colony 1.0 is now on CarbConnect®
An AI-assisted colony picking app, co-developed with Keio University School of Medicine, is live on CarbConnect® .
Colony picking is a manual, time-intensive step in clinical microbiology. Pick Colony uses image recognition to detect and count colonies on agar plates, supporting faster, more consistent downstream workflows — from organism ID to AMR surveillance.
First of a planned series of AI apps for clinical microbiology on CarbConnect.

🧠 New on CarbConnect® Community Applications — Brain Tumor Classifier 1.0
We've added an image classification model that takes a brain MRI scan as input and returns ranked tumor-class predictions. The underlying model is GiornoSolos/brain-tumor-classifier, openly published on Hugging Face — now optimized for one-click use inside CarbConnect® and carrying our "Verified by CarbGeM" badge after internal validation of behavior and integration.
For researchers and educators working at the intersection of medical imaging and AI, it's an immediate way to explore how vision models perform on neuroimaging tasks — no environment setup, no DevOps overhead.
