Excessive external linkage

I moved the external links section here, it has not been handled since 2016 and none of the links seemed relevant.

Academic digital pathology sites

Commercial digital pathology sites

Adding virtual histological staining to Digital Pathology

I have a conflict of interest: I was asked by an investor in PathScience to look at whether the Digital pathology article is missing relevant coverage of digital/virtual staining. I am not requesting that PathScience.com be added as an external link.

Proposed change:

Add the following sentence to the “Analyze” section, or create a short subsection if editors think that is more appropriate:

“Virtual histological staining uses trained neural networks to digitally generate histological stains from unstained tissue images or to transform one stain type into another; these methods have been described as an extension of digital pathology, although clinical use for primary diagnosis requires further validation.”

Suggested source:

Bai, B.; Yang, X.; Li, Y.; Zhang, Y.; Pillar, N.; Ozcan, A. “Deep learning-enabled virtual histological staining of biological samples.” Light: Science & Applications 12, 57 (2023).

Rationale:

The article currently discusses image analysis and machine learning in digital pathology, but does not appear to cover virtual/digital staining as a related technical area. I am proposing a topic-level addition rather than a company mention.
