Virtual hematoxylin and eosin histopathology using simultaneous photoacoustic remote sensing and scattering microscopy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining is the gold standard for most histopathological diagnostics but requires lengthy processing times not suitable for point-of-care diagnosis. Here we demonstrate a 266-nm excitation ultraviolet photoacoustic remote sensing (UV-PARS) and 1310-nm microscopy system capable of virtual H&E 3D imaging of tissues. Virtual hematoxylin staining of nuclei is achieved with UV-PARS, while virtual eosin staining is achieved using the already implemented interrogation laser from UV-PARS for scattering contrast. We demonstrate the capabilities of this dual-contrast system for en-face planar and depth-resolved imaging of human tissue samples exhibiting high concordance with H&E staining procedures and confocal fluorescence microscopy. To our knowledge, this is the first microscopy approach capable of depth-resolved imaging of unstained thick tissues with virtual H&E contrast.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
