Abstract
A method for training a pattern recognizer to identify regions of interest in unstained images of tissue samples is provided. Pairs of images of tissue samples are obtained, each pair including an unstained image of a given tissue sample and a stained image of the given tissue sample. An annotation (e.g., drawing operation) is then performed on the stained image to indicate a region of interest. The annotation information, in the form of a mask surrounding the region of interest, is then applied to the corresponding unstained image. The unstained image and mask are then supplied to train a pattern recognizer. The trained pattern recognizer can then be used to identify regions of interest within novel unstained images.
