Abstract
We present a virtual immunohistochemical (IHC) staining method based on label-free autofluorescence imaging and deep learning. Using a trained neural network, we transform multi-band autofluorescence images of unstained tissue sections to their bright-field equivalent HER2 images, matching the microscopic images captured after the standard IHC staining of the same tissue sections. Three pathologists’ blind evaluations of HER2 scores based on virtually stained and IHC-stained whole slide images revealed the statistically equivalent diagnostic values of the two methods. This virtual HER2 staining method provides a rapid, accurate, and low-cost alternative to the standard IHC staining methods and allows tissue preservation.
