Abstract
A method for synchronizing navigation in pathology stain images includes (a) downscaling the pathology stain images, (b) estimating rotation of the downscaled images, (c) aligning the downscaled images to generate aligned coordinates, and (d) transforming the aligned coordinates to original image coordinates in the pathology stain images to thereby generate alignment data. Also provided is a system for synchronized navigation in pathology stain images having original resolutions comprising a downscaler, a rotation estimator, an alignment module, and a coordinate transformer. The system may also include an image display system to display corresponding areas of the pathology stain images.
