Abstract

A deep learning model, trained using transcriptomic data, inexpensively quantifies and fine-maps ITH due to subtype admixture in routine images of LumA breast cancer, the most favorable subtype. This new approach could facilitate exploration of the mechanisms behind such heterogeneity and its impact on selection of therapy for individual patients.
