    摘要: Methods and systems for digitally enhancing an initial image of a material to which a plurality of stains were previously applied, that generally comprise: unmixing the image into a plurality of individual reconstructed images, each individual image corresponding to one of the stains; estimating a residual image corresponding to the difference between the original image and the reconstructed images; adjusting one or more components of the individual images; mixing the adjusted components using one or more estimated mixing coefficients; and adding the residual image to the mixed adjusted components to generate an enhanced image.

    摘要: The present disclosure concerns a method and system for assessing image quality of sub-images used to form a composite image using an algorithm developed by applying statistical correlation techniques to historical data on features of sub-images which were manually evaluated by experts and using those assessment to make decisions about the further processing of the sub-images which are being assessed. The method and system find particular value in the processing of sub-images generated while there is relative motion between the specimen under examination and the objective lens of a microscope such as when the microscope stage follows a planned traverse in the focal plane and a digital image is created at intervals correlated to the motion of the stage so that a region of interest in the specimen under examination is covered by the sub-images. The further processing decisions include manually examining the sub-images assessed to have unacceptable image quality, reimaging the entire region of interest and recreating specific sub-images. The method and system may also involve overlaying portions of a composite image with an indication that they were drawn from sub-images of unacceptable image quality.

    摘要: Methods for probing multiple targets in a biological sample are provided. The methods include the steps of providing a biological sample containing multiple targets, binding at least one fluorescent probe to one or more target present in the sample, and binding at least at least one control probe to one or more target present in the sample. The methods include the steps of observing a signal from the fluorescent probe and a control signal from the control probe and applying to the sample a basic solution containing an oxidizing agent that selectively inactivates the fluorescent probe and not the control probe. The methods further include the steps of binding at least one fluorescent probe to one or more target present in the sample and observing a signal from the fluorescent probe. The methods disclosed herein also provide for multiple iterations of binding, observing, and oxidizing for deriving information about multiple targets in a single sample. An associated kit is also provided.

    摘要: Methods for detecting multiple targets in a biological sample are provided. The methods includes contacting the sample with a first probe; physically binding the first probe to a first target; observing a first signal from the first probe; applying a chemical agent to modify the first signal; contacting the sample with a second probe; physically binding the second probe to a second target; and observing a second signal from the second probe. The methods disclosed herein also provide for multiple iterations of binding, observing, signal modification for deriving information about multiple targets in a single sample.
