Abstract
An analysis and visualization system analyzes a digital image of a tissue sample. In the sample, cells of a first type are stained in a first way, and cells of a second type are stained in a second way. The system segments the high-resolution image into first and second objects representing cells of the first and second types, respectively. The system also identifies a region of interest, and divides it into tiles. The system generates, for each tile, a first value and a second value. The first and second values for a tile are indicative of densities of the first and second objects in the tile. From the values, a measured correlation coefficient (CC) value is determined. The system compares the measured CC value to a reference CC value, thereby obtaining a correspondence value. The system then displays the image region along with a visualization of the correspondence value.
