1. Educational Purposes: High-quality annotated images are essential for teaching histology to medical and biology students. They help in visualizing and understanding the microscopic architecture of tissues.
2. Diagnostic Assistance: Annotated images assist pathologists in diagnosing diseases by highlighting critical areas of interest, such as abnormal cell formations or tissue architecture.
3. Research and Development: In research, annotated images are used to train machine learning models for tasks like tissue segmentation, disease classification, and biomarker identification.
