  <dc:title>Detection and Spatial Analysis of Tertiary Lymphoid Structures</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package tlsR version 0.3.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Fast, reproducible detection and quantitative analysis of
    tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in multiplexed tissue imaging.
    Implements Independent Component Analysis Trace (ICAT) index, local
    Ripley's K scanning, automated K Nearest Neighbor (KNN)-based TLS
    detection, and T-cell clusters identification as described in
    Amiryousefi et al. (2025) &lt;doi:10.1101/2025.09.21.677465&gt;.</dc:description>
