795-LazySlide: for Whole-Slide Image Analysis
The paper introduces LazySlide, an open-source Python package designed to streamline the analysis of whole-slide images in histopathology. By integrating with the scverse ecosystem, the framework bridges the gap between traditional pathology and modern single-cell omics workflows. It utilizes vision-language foundation models to enable advanced features such as natural language querying, zero-shot classification, and automated tissue segmentation. Unlike existing tools, it employs a custom WSIData structure that allows for efficient, direct access to various proprietary image formats without…
