Paper Abstract:      This work introduces a tool specifically designed to help pathologists in their daily work. The software tool integrates several applications related to different tumoral parameters very useful to analyze and detect tumours. All the proposed algorithms have in common the use of the most suitable colour space in every case in order to isolate the different tissues and therefore, to perform an appropriate segmentation. Results are presented for every single application, showing a great deal of accuracy in most cases, in comparison with that obtained by specialists in a manual way. The tool contributes to a higher level of assurance when estimating the seriousness of a tumour and its subsequent diagnosis.
