Cell-MICS: Detecting Immune Cells With Label-Free Two-Photon Autofluorescence and Deep Learning.

A deep learning method could enable faster, label-free analysis of immune cells in tissue samples without damaging them.

This study presents Cell-MICS, a deep learning method for detecting immune cells without labels using two-photon autofluorescence imaging. The approach could enable automated, non-destructive immune cell characterization in tissue samples.
