torchstain

License tests Pip Downloads DOI

GPU-accelerated stain normalization tools for histopathological images. Compatible with PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Numpy. Normalization algorithms currently implemented:

Installation

pip install torchstain

To install a specific backend use either torchstain[torch] or torchstain[tf]. The numpy backend is included by default in both.

Example Usage

import torch
from torchvision import transforms
import torchstain
import cv2

target = cv2.cvtColor(cv2.imread("./data/target.png"), cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
to_transform = cv2.cvtColor(cv2.imread("./data/source.png"), cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)

T = transforms.Compose([
    transforms.ToTensor(),
    transforms.Lambda(lambda x: x*255)
])

normalizer = torchstain.normalizers.MacenkoNormalizer(backend='torch')
normalizer.fit(T(target))

t_to_transform = T(to_transform)
norm, H, E = normalizer.normalize(I=t_to_transform, stains=True)
