In this paper, we apply persistent entropy, a novel topological statis-
tic, for characterization of images of epithelial tissues. We have found
out that persistent entropy is able to summarize topological and geomet-
ric information encoded by -complexes and persistent homology. After
using some statistical tests, we can guarantee the existence of signi cant
di erences in the studied tissues.Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad MTM2015-67072-
