Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure pertain to systems and methods for enhancing brightfield or darkfield images to better enable nucleus detection. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein are useful for identifying membrane stain biomarkers as well as nuclear/cytoplasm stain biomarkers in stained images of biological samples. In some embodiments, the presently disclosed systems and methods enable quick and accurate nucleus detection in stained images of biological samples, especially for original stained images of biological samples where the nuclei appear faint.
