Stain normalization tools for histological analysis and computational pathology
Project description
torchstain
GPU-accelerated stain normalization tools for histopathological images. Compatible with PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Numpy. Normalization algorithms currently implemented:
- Macenko [1] (ported from numpy implementation)
- Reinhard [2]
- Modified Reinhard [3]
Installation
pip install torchstain
To install a specific backend use either torchstain[torch]
or torchstain[tf]
. The numpy backend is included by default in both.
Example Usage
import torch
from torchvision import transforms
import torchstain
import cv2
target = cv2.cvtColor(cv2.imread("./data/target.png"), cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
to_transform = cv2.cvtColor(cv2.imread("./data/source.png"), cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
T = transforms.Compose([
transforms.ToTensor(),
transforms.Lambda(lambda x: x*255)
])
torch_normalizer = torchstain.normalizers.MacenkoNormalizer(backend='torch')
torch_normalizer.fit(T(target))
t_to_transform = T(to_transform)
norm, H, E = normalizer.normalize(I=t_to_transform, stains=True)
