H&E, Tumor Detection

The H&E Tumor Detection APP uses deep learning to automatically identify and outline tumor regions in H&E-stained brightfield images of different tissue types. It delivers accurate tumor ROIs and a quantitative total tumor area measurement (mm²).

Using our Tissuealign module, users can register the H&E with different stained sections (other brightfield or any IF) to transfer the tumor regions for further detailed analysis onto the aligned stains. This enables downstream analysis being limited to tumor-specific regions, also on stains where tumor detection is not possible by itself.

Trained on a diverse set of tissues and laboratories, the model is robust to staining variability across multiple organs. Users can easily adjust the minimum area of detected tumor or fine-tune the model to their own data, making the app adaptable to a wide range of research applications.
