Pretreatment MRI reveals a latent, molecular-subtype-independent structural phenotype that organizes treatment trajectories and recurrence risk

arXiv:2607. 02768v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pathologic complete response and tumor shrinkage measure whether breast cancer responds to neoadjuvant therapy, but not whether that response was structurally favorable, persistent, or hidden beneath volume loss.

Multimodal Empirical Bayes Variational Autoencoders for Joint Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Modeling

arXiv:2607. 13984v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Longitudinal tumor measurements, dropout information, and genetic covariates provide complementary information about treatment response, but integrating these data sources within a single population modeling framework remains challenging.

Spatial proteomics guided by H&E-based AI reveals recurrence-risk niches in triple-negative breast cancer

arXiv:2608. 03145v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning models can predict cancer recurrence from H&E stained slides, but the localized molecular states underlying these predictions remain largely obscured.

Probing, Fusion, and Trustworthiness: A Systematic Evaluation of Foundation Model Representations for Multimodal Cancer Analysis

arXiv:2606. 17115v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models (FMs) have emerged as powerful representation extractors for medical data, yet their generalizability to datasets under distribution shift remains underexplored.

Predicting Therapeutic Outcome via Aligning Patient-Specific Knowledge Graph and Gene-Level Perturbation Representations

Accurate prediction of patient-specific therapeutic response from pre-treatment transcriptomes is hindered by the scarcity of matched clinical response labels and post-treatment molecular profiles. Preclinical transfer-learning models can simulate drug-induced expression changes but are often hard to interpret and unstable, whereas knowledge-graph methods provide mechanistic context yet remain static and fail to capture drug-induced transcriptomic perturbation dynamics.

PRISM-Net: Patient-specific reference-guided inter-breast symmetry matching for three-class breast DCE-MRI classification

Breast DCE-MRI AI is increasingly being explored for breast-level classification of no-lesion, benign, and malignant findings, beyond conventional lesion-centered diagnosis. Within this broader diagnostic scope, however, patient-specific background variability remains a major source of imaging confounding across classification tasks.

Dense Temporal Contrast Synthesis via Conditioned Latent Transport

arXiv:2607. 29394v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is essential for breast cancer management, but reliance on gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) restricts use in contraindicated populations, prolongs scan protocols, and presents environmental toxicity concerns.

Seeing Below the Limit of Detection: A Censored-Poisson Bayesian Latent-Growth Change-Point Detector (the Span Detector) for Serial ctDNA in HR+/HER2- Metastatic Breast Cancer

arXiv:2606. 11876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Circulating-tumour DNA (ctDNA) carries evidence of drug resistance months before imaging shows it, but the earliest evidence lives below the assay's limit of detection (LoD): a nascent subclone is detected only intermittently, producing a flickering sequence of faint detects and non-detects.
