Efficient AI-Driven Multi-Section Whole Slide Image Analysis for Biochemical Recurrence Prediction in Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed malignancies in men worldwide. However, precise prediction of biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy remains challenging due to the multifocality of tumors distributed throughout the prostate gland. In this paper, we propose a novel AI framework that simultaneously processes a series of multi-section pathology slides to capture the comprehensive tumor landscape across the entire prostate gland. To develop this predictive AI model, we curated a large-scale dataset of 23,451 slides from 789 patients. The proposed framework demonstrated strong predictive performance for 1- and 2-year BCR prediction, substantially outpe...
