Spot-Based Global Registration for Subpixel Stitching of Single-Molecule Resolution Images for Tissue-Scale Spatial Transcriptomics.
Analytical Chemistry 2024 April 15
Single-molecule imaging at the tissue scale has revolutionized our understanding of biology by providing unprecedented insight into the molecular expression of individual cells and their spatial organization within tissues. However, achieving precise image stitching at the single-molecule level remains a challenge, primarily due to heterogeneous background signals and dim labeling signals in single-molecule images. This paper introduces Spot-Based Global Registration (SBGR), a novel strategy that shifts the focus from raw images to identified molecular spots for high-resolution image alignment. The use of spot-based data enables straightforward and robust evaluation of the credibility of estimated translations and stitching performance. The method outperforms existing image-based stitching methods, achieving subpixel accuracy (83 ± 36 nm) with exceptional consistency. Furthermore, SBGR incorporates a mechanism to surgically remove duplicate spots in overlapping regions, maximizing information recovery from duplicate measurements. In conclusion, SBGR emerges as a robust and accurate solution for stitching single-molecule resolution images in tissue-scale spatial transcriptomics, offering versatility and potential for high-resolution spatial analysis.
