The page reports results on 1,882 cells from 11 patients excluded from training, including 851 correctly flagged leukemic cells and 36 normal cells flagged in error at a 0.770 threshold. Its 47.7 MB network runs in the browser, with the site stating that images are neither uploaded nor sent to a server.
