Researchers have developed a method to improve the generalization of foundation models for predicting microsatellite instability (MSI) status in colorectal cancer from whole slide images. By incorporating biologically motivated spatial priors, specifically peripheral distance encoding and local immune neighborhood encoding, the models become less reliant on site-specific imaging patterns. The peripheral distance encoding approach demonstrated a high MSI AUC of 0.959 and perfect MSS specificity on an external dataset, suggesting it captures a more invariant biological signal. AI
