CrossScale-GLIO: Topology-Preserving Vision-Language Alignment of MRI and Whole-Slide Histopathology for Diffuse Glioma

Read the original on arXiv AI →

CrossScale-GLIO is a multimodal framework that aligns magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and whole‑slide histopathology of diffuse glioma by representing MRI as a tumor‑habitat graph and histology as a cell‑niche graph. Using a structure‑aware optimal transport objective anchored by diagnostic language, the method achieved high predictive performance on glioma subtyping and molecular markers, with a paired‑test subtype macro‑F1 of 0.789 and AUROCs ranging from 0.802 to 0.934. Pathologists found 81.2% of high‑mass habitat‑niche pairs biologically plausible, and experiments showed that preserving relational topology is essential for accurate cross‑scale correspondence.

Bridging Modalities on the Cortex: Surface-based MRI to PET Translation with a Diffusion Bridge

The paper introduces DB‑SUiT, a surface‑based diffusion bridge that translates cortical MRI to PET images directly on the cortical manifold. It employs a conditional spherical U‑shaped vision Transformer to capture multi‑scale surface features and long‑range dependencies while incorporating demographic and subcortical information. Evaluations on two dementia datasets show that the synthesized PET surfaces outperform MRI and PET volumes in automated classification and achieve high diagnostic accuracy in a blinded reader study.
