Mistic

Understanding the complex ecology of a tumor tissue and the spatio-temporal relationships between its cellular and microenvironment components is becoming a key component of translational research, especially in immune-oncology. The generation and analysis of multiplexed images from patient samples is of paramount importance to facilitate this understanding. In this work, we present Mistic, an open-source multiplexed image t-SNE viewer that enables the simultaneous viewing of multiple 2D images rendered using multiple layout options to provide an overall visual preview of the entire dataset. In particular, the positions of the images can be taken from t-SNE or UMAP coordinates. This grouped view of all the images further aids an exploratory understanding of the specific expression pattern of a given biomarker or collection of biomarkers across all images, helps to identify images expressing a particular phenotype or to select images for subsequent downstream analysis. Currently there is no freely available tool to generate such image t-SNEs.
