System and method for generating a stained image

A method for generating a stained image comprising the steps of:

• obtaining a first image of a key sample section;
• and
• processing the first image with a stain learning engine arranged to generate at least one stained image, wherein the at least one stained image represents the key sample section stained with at least one stain, wherein the key sample section is stained with a standard stain, the stain learning engine includes a machine learning network arranged to generate the at least one stained image, and
• the machine learning network includes a generator network arranged to generate the at least one stained image over a plurality of cycles and a discriminator network arranged to analysis the at least one stained image to provide feedback to the generator network on each of the plurality of cycles.

• and
• processing the first image with a stain learning engine arranged to generate at least one stained image, wherein the at least one stained image represents the key sample section stained with at least one stain, and the key sample section is stained with a standard stain;
• and
• obtaining an adjacent image of at least one adjacent sample section obtained in proximity to the key sample section, wherein the at least one adjacent sample section is stained with at least one non-standard stain, and the standard stain includes hematoxylin and eosin (H&E).

A system for generating a stained image comprising:

• an image gateway arranged to obtain a first image of a key sample section;
• and
• an image generator arranged to process the first image with a stain learning engine arranged to generate at least one stained image, wherein the at least one stained image represents the key sample section stained with at least one stain, the key sample section is stained with a standard stain, the image gateway is further arranged to obtain at least one adjacent image of at least one adjacent sample section obtained in proximity to the key sample section, the at least one adjacent sample section is stained with at least one non-standard stain, the at least one stained image represents the key sample section stained with at least one non-standard stain;
• and the at least one adjacent image of at least one adjacent sample section obtained is processed by the stain learning engine to generate the at least one stained image.
