SCINTILLA‑SNN is a 3D spiking neural network designed to predict perineural invasion (PNI) in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) from MRI scans. It uses a four‑stage hierarchical backbone and a Multi‑Scale Spike Aggregation module to focus on sparse, localized PNI cues while reducing computational load. In a 10‑year retrospective study of 182 patients, the model achieved an AUROC of 0.748 and cut inference energy by over 23× compared to dense MAC‑only approaches.

The paper introduces Order-Aware Slab Multiple Instance Learning (OAS‑MIL) for predicting perineural invasion (PNI) in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma using preoperative T2‑weighted MRI. It treats each tumor‑centered MRI crop as an ordered sequence of overlapping 2.5D slabs, extracting slab‑level features with a shared encoder and aggregating them through both permutation‑invariant set‑attention and bidirectional sequence‑attention branches. In five‑fold patient‑level cross‑validation, OAS‑MIL achieved a mean AUROC of 0.770, outperforming volumetric and MIL baselines, indicating that axial order provides a useful inductive bias for weakly supervised PNI prediction.
