Research Article:
Color standardization in whole slide imaging using a color calibration slide
Pinky A Bautista, Noriaki Hashimoto, Yukako Yagi
J Pathol Inform
2014, 5:4 (31 January 2014)
DOI
:10.4103/2153-3539.126153
PMID
:24672739
Background:
Color consistency in histology images is still an issue in digital pathology. Different imaging systems reproduced the colors of a histological slide differently.
Materials and Methods:
Color correction was implemented using the color information of the nine color patches of a color calibration slide. The inherent spectral colors of these patches along with their scanned colors were used to derive a color correction matrix whose coefficients were used to convert the pixels' colors to their target colors.
Results:
There was a significant reduction in the CIELAB color difference, between images of the same H & E histological slide produced by two different whole slide scanners by 3.42 units,
P
< 0.001 at 95% confidence level.
Conclusion:
Color variations in histological images brought about by whole slide scanning can be effectively normalized with the use of the color calibration slide.

Research Article:
Mapping stain distribution in pathology slides using whole slide imaging
Fang-Cheng Yeh, Qing Ye, T Kevin Hitchens, Yijen L Wu, Anil V Parwani, Chien Ho
J Pathol Inform
2014, 5:1 (31 January 2014)
DOI
:10.4103/2153-3539.126140
PMID
:24672736
Background:
Whole slide imaging (WSI) offers a novel approach to digitize and review pathology slides, but the voluminous data generated by this technology demand new computational methods for image analysis.
Materials
and
Methods:
In this study, we report a method that recognizes stains in WSI data and uses kernel density estimator to calculate the stain density across the digitized pathology slides. The validation study was conducted using a rat model of acute cardiac allograft rejection and another rat model of heart ischemia/reperfusion injury. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was conducted to label ED1

macrophages in the tissue sections and the stained slides were digitized by a whole slide scanner. The whole slide images were tessellated to enable parallel processing. Pixel-wise stain classification was conducted to classify the IHC stains from those of the background and the density distribution of the identified IHC stains was then calculated by the kernel density estimator.
Results:
The regression analysis showed a correlation coefficient of 0.8961 between the number of IHC stains counted by our stain recognition algorithm and that by the manual counting, suggesting that our stain recognition algorithm was in good agreement with the manual counting. The density distribution of the IHC stains showed a consistent pattern with those of the cellular magnetic resonance (MR) images that detected macrophages labeled by ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron-oxide or micron-sized iron-oxide particles.
Conclusions:
Our method provides a new imaging modality to facilitate clinical diagnosis. It also provides a way to validate/correlate cellular MRI data used for tracking immune-cell infiltration in cardiac transplant rejection and cardiac ischemic injury.
