Multiplex immunofluorescence (IF) has been limited by cost, labor intensity, and technical variability. AI-driven models are being developed to generate virtual biomarker staining from routine H&E slides, thereby addressing these scalability issues. Christopher Jackson from ViewsML discussed a system presented at USCAP 2026 that uses clinical-grade IHC paired with H&E images to create a virtual biomarker library. This innovation could enhance NSCLC diagnostics, allowing for comprehensive tissue characterization while preserving valuable samples and reducing turnaround time.
