Whole slide images (WSIs) provide rich diagnostic information for computational pathology, but their gigapixel scale, stain variation, scanner differences, tissue artifacts, and limited expert annotation make robust model training challenging. This paper presents a multi-source Masked Autoencoder (MAE) framework, named ProsMAE, for histopathology representation learning.
arXiv:2607. 18218v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models have emerged as a driving force in computational pathology, with the potential to transform cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment selection by learning transferable representations from large-scale histopathology data.

Deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems have shown strong performance in breast cancer diagnosis, particularly for classification tasks in mammography. However, domain shifts across multi-site datasets remain a challenge, especially when models are applied to unseen domains.
arXiv:2606. 30951v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Micro-ultrasound ($\mu$US) is a new, emerging, and promising imaging modality for prostate cancer (PCa) detection, but accurate identification of suspicious tissue remains highly dependent on clinical experience, leading to substantial inter-observer variability.

arXiv:2606. 12346v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining is the cornerstone of histopathology, yet scalable, quantitative analysis of H&E whole-slide images (WSIs) remains a central challenge in computational pathology.
