Researchers have developed a novel Order-Aware Slab Multiple Instance Learning (OAS-MIL) framework to predict the risk of perineural invasion (PNI) in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) using preoperative MRI scans. This weakly supervised approach processes MRI data as ordered sequences of 2.5D slabs, enabling patient-level PNI prediction without detailed slice- or voxel-level annotations. In validation studies, OAS-MIL demonstrated a mean AUROC of 0.770, surpassing existing volumetric and MIL baselines and indicating that axial order is a valuable inductive bias for this type of medical imaging analysis.
