Abstract | Purpose: The latest generation of scanners can digitize histopathology glass slides for computerized image analysis. These images contain valuable information for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Consequently, the availability of high digital magnifications like Approach: Over the past decade, the digital solution of enhancing images resolution has been addressed by the concept of super resolution (SR). In addition, deep learning has offered state-of-the-art results for increasing the image resolution after acquisition. In this study, multiple deep learning networks designed for image SR are trained and assessed for the histopathology domain. Results: We report quantitative and qualitative comparisons of the results using publicly available cancer images to shed light on the benefits and challenges of deep learning for extrapolating image resolution in histopathology. Three pathologists evaluated the results to assess the quality and diagnostic value of generated SR images. Conclusions: Pixel-level information, including structures and textures in histopathology images, are learnable by deep networks; hence improving the resolution quantity of scanned slides is possible by training appropriate networks. Different SR networks may perform best for various cancer sites and subtypes. |
