Label-free virtual immunohistochemical staining of tissue using deep learning

A deep learning-based virtual HER2 IHC staining method uses a conditional generative adversarial network that is trained to rapidly transform autofluorescence microscopic images of unlabeled / label-free breast tissue sections into bright-field equivalent microscopic images, matching the standard HER2 IHC staining that is chemically performed on the same tissue sections. The efficacy of this staining framework was demonstrated by quantitative analysis of blindly graded HER2 scores of virtually stained and immunohistochemically stained HER2 whole slide images (WSIs). A second quantitative blinded study revealed that the virtually stained HER2 images exhibit a comparable staining quality in the level of nuclear detail, membrane clearness, and absence of staining artifacts with respect to their immunohistochemically stained counterparts. This virtual staining framework bypasses the costly, laborious, and time-consuming IHC staining procedures in laboratory, and can be extended to other types of biomarkers to accelerate the IHC tissue staining and biomedical workflow.
