What is Histolab best used for?

Histolab is best used for lightweight WSI processing tasks such as tissue detection, tile extraction, and basic dataset preparation for H&E images.

Which slide formats does this skill support?

It supports common gigapixel formats including SVS, TIFF, and NDPI, leveraging OpenSlide for multi-level image access.

How does ScoreTiler improve dataset quality?

ScoreTiler uses scoring functions like NucleiScorer or CellularityScorer to rank and extract the most informative regions of a slide rather than sampling randomly.

Can I use this for multiplexed imaging or spatial proteomics?

While Histolab is excellent for standard H&E slide processing, the documentation recommends using pathml for more advanced spatial proteomics or multiplexed imaging pipelines.
