- The standard benchmark/reference on colour normalisation(CN) in digital pathology. Presents first non-linear CN method and shows superiority to competing methods. CN is important in digital pathology for standardisation of images between labs and for analysis to work in the real-world, and since microscopes work with subtractive rather than additive colour, and *multiple* stains vary separately in their effect on each frequency. Resulted in the widely used Warwick CN toolbox(more than 3000 downloads)(https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/dcs/research/tia/software/sntoolbox/) and is part of Colour Analysis add-on from Leeds spin-out HeteroGenius Ltd(Derek.Magee@heterogenius.co.uk) -- http://ww.w.medicalimagemanager.com/features/colour/index.html, with sales across UK, Europe and Asia(Japan/Korea).
