Figure Lengend Snippet: a Exampleregion of interest within a multiplexed image from Donor 9 (region 3); GMM was used to automatically segment/classify different cell types. Sub-regions of interest are shown in b – d panels with probability maps for each cell type; b cytokeratin CK26 epidermis staining and adjacent probability map of epidermis cells overlaid on the virtual H&E; c endothelial cells of blood vessels (CD31) and adjacent probability map of endothelial cells; d p53 staining in the epidermis and adjacent probability map of p53 positive cells; e The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy metrics for the cell classification workflow for nine biomarkers using manual annotations.
Article Snippet: To address these challenges, we have developed an automated, reproducible workflow ( M ultiplexed Im a ge T hree-D R econstruction and I ntegrated C ell S patial - A nalysis - MATRICS-A) for 3D reconstruction of highly multiplexed tissue sections.
