Article Synopsis
  • * The study introduces a novel model called In-and-Out Net, which uses Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) to convert Reflectance Confocal Microscopy (RCM) images into Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained images, optimizing the visualization of tissue samples.
  • * The research validates the model's effectiveness through a series of analyses and showcases its potential as a valuable tool for enhancing histological image analysis without the typical registration challenges.
