Abstract Pancreatic fine-needle aspirations are the gold-standard diagnostic procedure for the evaluation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.A suspicion for Fencing Materials malignancy can escalate towards chemotherapy followed by a major surgery and therefore is a high-stakes task for the pathologist.In this paper, we propose a deep learning framework, MIPCL, that can serve as a helpful screening tool, predicting the presence or absence of cancer.We also reproduce two deep learning models that have found success in surgical pathology for our cytopathology study.

Our MIPCL significantly improves over both models across all evaluated metrics (F1-Score: 87.97% vs 88.70% vs 91.07%; AUROC: 0.

9159 vs.0.9051 vs 0.9435).

Additionally, our model is able to recover the most Knitting Kits contributing regions on the slide for the final prediction.We also present a dataset curation strategy that increases the number of training examples from an existing dataset, thereby reducing the resource burden tied to collecting and scanning additional cases.
