Registration of whole immunohistochemical slide images: an efficient way to characterize biomarker colocalization.

Extracting accurate information from complex biological processes involved in diseases, such as cancers, requires the simultaneous targeting of multiple proteins and locating their respective expression in tissue samples. This information can be collected by imaging and registering adjacent sections from the same tissue sample and stained by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Registration accuracy should be on the scale of a few cells to enable protein colocalization to be assessed.JOURNAL ARTICLESCOPUS: ar.jSCOPUS: ar.j
