In The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology (TPS), the important cytomorphological features for diagnosing high‐grade urothelial carcinoma (HGUC) are a nuclear‐to‐cytoplasmic (N:C) ratio exceeding 0.7, hyperchromasia, coarse chromatin, and irregular nuclear borders. However, quantitative cytomorphological assessments of HGUC cells using SurePath slides are rare. Therefore, we evaluated HGUC cells on SurePath slides quantitatively using a digital image analysis system and compared these data with ThinPrep data.
