Abstract
Bladder cancer (BC) remains a major disease burden in terms of incidence, morbidity, mortality, and economic cost. Deciphering the intrinsic molecular subtypes and identification of key drivers of BC has yielded successful novel therapeutic strategies. Advances in computational and digital pathology are reshaping the field of anatomical pathology. This review offers an update on the most relevant computational algorithms in digital pathology that have been proposed to enhance BC management. These tools promise to enhance diagnostics, staging, and grading accuracy and streamline efficiency while advancing practice consistency. Computational applications that enable intrinsic molecular classification, predict response to neoadjuvant therapy, and identify targets of therapy are also reviewed.
期刊介绍:
Modern Pathology, an international journal under the ownership of The United States & Canadian Academy of Pathology (USCAP), serves as an authoritative platform for publishing top-tier clinical and translational research studies in pathology.
Original manuscripts are the primary focus of Modern Pathology, complemented by impactful editorials, reviews, and practice guidelines covering all facets of precision diagnostics in human pathology. The journal's scope includes advancements in molecular diagnostics and genomic classifications of diseases, breakthroughs in immune-oncology, computational science, applied bioinformatics, and digital pathology.
