Histopathology is used in the diagnosis of hematologic malignancies to identify and immunophenotype leukemic cells. However, the surrounding immunologic microenvironment is not characterized in routine clinical practice. This thesis aims to profile immune populations of the chronic (CML) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) bone marrow (BM) from a T cell perspective. Moreover, we evaluate the potential of machine learning for characterizing molecular genetics and prognosis using H&E stained BM samples of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients. In study I, we collected diagnostic BM biopsies of 56 chronic-phase CML (CP-CML) patients and 14 control subjects. These were profiled with multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) and image analysis.
