Abstract
We present a supervised learning approach to train a deep neural network which can transform images of H&E stained tissue sections into special stains (e.g., PAS, Jones silver stain and Masson’s Trichrome). We performed a diagnostic study using tissue sections from 58 subjects covering a variety of non-neoplastic kidney diseases to show that when the pathologists performed their diagnoses using the three virtually-created special stains in addition to H&E, a statistically significant diagnostic improvement was made over the use of H&E only. This virtual staining technique can be used to improve preliminary diagnoses while saving time and reducing costs.
