Radiology and multi-scale data integration for precision oncology
摘要
In this Perspective paper we explore the potential of integrating radiological imaging with other data types, a critical yet underdeveloped area in comparison to the fusion of other multi-omic data. Radiological images provide a comprehensive, three-dimensional view of cancer, capturing features that would be missed by biopsies or other data modalities. This paper explores the complexities and challenges of incorporating medical imaging into data integration models, in the context of precision oncology. We present the different categories of imaging-omics integration and discuss recent progress, highlighting the opportunities that arise from bringing together spatial data on different scales.
