Abstract

The tissue diagnosis of adenocarcinoma and intraductal carcinoma of the prostate includes Gleason grading of tumor morphology on the hematoxylin and eosin stain and immunohistochemistry markers on the prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia-4 stain (CK5/6, P63, and AMACR). In this work, we create an automated system for producing both virtual hematoxylin and eosin and prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia-4 immunohistochemistry stains from unstained prostate tissue using a high-throughput hyperspectral fluorescence microscope and artificial intelligence and machine learning. We demonstrate that the virtual stainer models can produce high-quality images suitable for diagnosis by genitourinary pathologists. Specifically, we validate our system through extensive human review and computational analysis, using a previously validated Gleason scoring model, and an expert panel, on a large data set of test slides. This study extends our previous work on virtual staining from autofluorescence, demonstrates the clinical utility of this technology for prostate cancer, and exemplifies a rigorous standard of qualitative and quantitative evaluation for digital pathology.
