Researchers have developed an attention-based multiple instance learning (ABMIL) framework to predict lung adenocarcinoma growth patterns from whole slide images. This method reduces the need for extensive annotations by integrating pretrained pathology foundation models as patch encoders. Experiments demonstrated that fine-tuning these encoders improved performance, with Prov-GigaPath achieving a Kappa score of 0.699 under the ABMIL framework, outperforming simpler aggregation baselines.
