Probabilistic Integration of Renal Cancer Radiology and Pathology Using Graph Neural Networks
摘要
Kidney tumors can be highly heterogeneous from the microscopic to the macroscopic scale. To address this, we propose a sparsity-informed probabilistic integration of radiomics and pathomics for kidney cancer analysis. We construct radiology and pathology graphs to model spatial correlations, then use a probabilistic method and graph neural networks to identify biomarkers and aggregate spatial features. Our validation shows that this integrated approach significantly outperforms traditional methods in kidney survival analysis, achieving a notable improvement of 0.084 in the concordance index, enabling better prognostic assessments for kidney cancer patients.
