Towards Reliable AI-Based Histological Staining: A Systematic Study of Scaling and Uncertainty in Unpaired Generative Models

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper presents a systematic evaluation of six unsupervised image‑to‑image generative models for virtual Sirius Red staining of mouse liver tissue from routine H&E slides. It benchmarks these models across 54 scaling configurations on a newly released paired H&E‑to‑SR dataset, assessing perceptual, distributional, and task‑specific performance, and further trains the best models into deep ensembles to quantify epistemic uncertainty. The study finds that GAN‑based and diffusion‑based methods differ markedly across these metrics, indicating that reliable virtual staining requires reporting and selecting on all three axes simultaneously.

Semantic Segmentation-Driven Image-Level Diagnosis of Liver Cancers in Hematoxylin and Eosin Histopathology Images

arXiv:2607. 03253v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) staining constitutes the primary entry point in routine diagnostic workflows, computer-aided diagnosis from whole-slide H&E images is of particular clinical relevance.

Assessment of Conditional Diffusion Model for Synthetic Histopathology Image Generation

arXiv:2608. 03990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic histopathology image generation has emerged as an approach that may address data scarcity in computational pathology, yet current evaluation methodologies may not fully assess synthetic data quality for medical applications.

LiFUSE: Frequency-Spatial Unified Self-Supervised Pretraining for Liver Disease Analysis on Non-contrast CT

LiFUSE introduces a unified frequency‑spatial self‑supervised pretraining framework for liver disease analysis on non‑contrast CT scans. The method employs a frequency branch that uses random band‑stop masking and spectrum reconstruction, and a spatial branch that performs hybrid‑granularity masked volumetric reconstruction, with a cross‑domain consistency scheme to fuse the two branches. Experiments on three clinical tasks and a public transfer setting demonstrate that LiFUSE consistently outperforms strong baselines, indicating its potential to enhance liver disease screening using low‑contrast NCCT images.

An interpretable deep learning method for early hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis on multiphase CT

The study introduces dLI-RADS, an interpretable AI system that estimates hepatocellular carcinoma probability from multiphase CT images of liver lesions while aligning with LI-RADS imaging concepts. By combining neural network predictions with handcrafted quantitative imaging features and logistic regression, dLI-RADS achieved 80% lesion-level accuracy, outperforming standard LI-RADS (74%) in a multicenter retrospective cohort. The method was validated using bootstrap non‑inferiority tests and external sensitivity comparisons.

DaX: Learning General Pathology Representations Across Scales

arXiv:2606. 06983v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computational pathology requires visual representations that transfer across diverse clinical endpoints and remain robust to variation in magnification, staining, scanner type, slide preparation, and input resolution.
