Abstract

We present a rapid, large-field bimodal imaging platform that integrates conventional brightfield microscopy with a lensless IR imaging scanner, enabling whole-slide IR image stack acquisition in minutes. Using a dedicated deep learning model, we implement an optical HE staining strategy based on subcellular morpho-spectral fingerprinting.
