Abstract
Described herein are computer-implemented methods for analysis of a tissue sample. An example method includes: annotating the whole tumor regions or set of tumorous sub-regions either on a biomarker image or an H&E image (e.g. from an adjacent serial section of the biomarker image); registering at least a portion of the biomarker image to the H&E image; detecting different cellular and regional tissue structures within the registered H&E image; computing a probability map based on the different detected structures within the registered H&E image; deriving nuclear metrics from each of the biomarker and H&E images; deriving probability metrics from the probability map; and classifying tumor nuclei in the biomarker image based on the computed nuclear and probability metrics.
