  • Patent number: 11783603
    Abstract: A machine learning predictor model is trained to generate a prediction of the appearance of a tissue sample stained with a special stain such as an IHC stain from an input image that is either unstained or stained with H&E. Training data takes the form of thousands of pairs of precisely aligned images, one of which is an image of a tissue specimen stained with H&E or unstained, and the other of which is an image of the tissue specimen stained with the special stain. The model can be trained to predict special stain images for a multitude of different tissue types and special stain types, in use, an input image, e.g., an H&E image of a given tissue specimen at a particular magnification level is provided to the model and the model generates a prediction of the appearance of the tissue specimen as if it were stained with the special stain. The predicted image is provided to a user and displayed, e.g., on a pathology workstation.

  • Patent number: 11776150
    Abstract: An x-ray image laterality detection system is provided. The x-ray image laterality detection system includes a detection computing device. The processor of the computing device is programmed to execute a neural network model for analyzing x-ray images, wherein the neural network model is trained with training x-ray images as inputs and observed laterality classes associated with the training x-ray images as outputs. The process is also programmed to receive an unclassified x-ray image, analyze the unclassified x-ray image using the neural network model, and assign a laterality class to the unclassified x-ray image. If the assigned laterality class is not target laterality, the processor is programmed to adjust the unclassified x-ray image to derive a corrected x-ray image having the target laterality and output the corrected x-ray image. If the assigned laterality class is the target laterality, the processor is programmed to output the unclassified x-ray image.
