Researchers have developed a modular framework for multimodal AI fusion, combining whole-slide histology images with clinical data to predict outcomes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This framework allows for the interchangeable testing of 15 different fusion methods. In a prospective cohort of newly diagnosed IBD patients, the best-performing fusion method achieved a macro-F1 score of 0.57-0.75, outperforming single-modality models in four out of six scenarios and varying in its reliance on image data depending on the remission type.
