Abstract
An image analysis system and method to generate selective stain segmentation images for at least one cell type of interest within a stained tissue image are presented. Cell membranes in the tissue image are detected to generate a corresponding membrane mask image. Cell nuclei are classified to generate a classified cells image. Selective stain segmentation images are generated for the at least one cell type of interest based on the membrane mask image and the classified cells image.
