Morphology-aware deep learning predicts colorectal cancer survival from whole-slide images
arXiv:2610.17603v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Background: Five-year survival prediction from hematoxylin-and-eosin whole-slide images could support risk stratification, but the task is weakly supervised, and the tissue morphologies carrying prognostic information remain incompletely characterized. Methods: We conducted a retrospective secondary analysis using TCGA-COAD/READ (n=562) for morphology-specific analysis, Alliance/ CALGB 89803 (n=424) for model development, and SurGen (n=2…
