alterlab-histolab

Extract and preprocess tiles from whole-slide images (WSI) with histolab — OpenSlide-backed slide loading, tissue detection and masks, Random/Grid/Score tile extraction, and image/morphological filters for H&E preprocessing. Use when the user needs lightweight WSI slide preprocessing — building tile datasets for ML training, tissue segmentation, or quick tile-based inspection of histopathology slides. For end-to-end computational-pathology, deep-learning model training, nucleus segmentation, or multiplexed/spatial-proteomics (CODEX, Vectra) pipelines prefer alterlab-pathml instead. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.
