From Fluorescent Glow to Familiar H&E: An AI Bridge for Pathology

From Fluorescent Glow to Familiar H&E: An AI Bridge for Pathology

Pathologists read H&E-stained slides; researchers capture fluorescent “glow” images. This study shows how AI can translate between them so everyone sees the same story.

Using a CycleGAN (a type of image-to-image translation model), the method turns multi-channel fluorescence microscopy into convincing, H&E-like images—without needing perfectly paired training examples. It preserves cell and tissue shapes while adopting the familiar pink-and-purple palette.

  • No paired data: learns from separate sets of fluorescence and H&E images.
  • Structure first: maintains morphology that matters for interpretation.
  • Plug-in friendly: helps fit fluorescence data into H&E-based workflows and tools.
