全切片成像(WSI)将数字病理学推进至计算分析新阶段,使百亿像素组织切片可被分析。近期基础模型进展加速了病理图像、临床报告与结构化数据的联合推理。然而仍面临挑战:极高分辨率导致视觉学习计算负担重;专家标注有限制约有监督方法;多模态信息融合与生物学可解释性难以兼顾;模型处理超长视觉序列时缺乏透明度。本文系统综述多模态计算病理学最新进展,涵盖四大方向:(1) 自监督表示学习与结构感知的令牌压缩用于WSI;(2) 多模态数据生成与增强;(3) 参数高效适配与增强推理的少样本学习;(4) 多智能体协同推理以支持可信诊断。特别分析令牌压缩如何实现跨尺度建模,以及多智能体机制如何在不同放大倍率间模拟病理学家的“思维链”,实现不确定性的证据融合。最后讨论开放挑战,主张未来进步依赖统一的多模态框架,整合高分辨率视觉数据与临床生物医学知识,支撑可解释且安全的AI辅助诊断。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Whole slide imaging (WSI) has transformed digital pathology by enabling computational analysis of gigapixel histopathology images. Recent foundation model advances have accelerated progress in computational pathology, facilitating joint reasoning across pathology images, clinical reports, and structured data. Despite this progress, challenges remain: the extreme resolution of WSIs creates computational hurdles for visual learning; limited expert annotations constrain supervised approaches; integrating multimodal information while preserving biological interpretability remains difficult; and the opacity of modeling ultra-long visual sequences hinders clinical transparency. This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal computational pathology. We systematically analyze four research directions: (1) self-supervised representation learning and structure-aware token compression for WSIs; (2) multimodal data generation and augmentation; (3) parameter-efficient adaptation and reasoning-enhanced few-shot learning; and (4) multi-agent collaborative reasoning for trustworthy diagnosis. We specifically examine how token compression enables cross-scale modeling and how multi-agent mechanisms simulate a pathologist's "Chain of Thought" across magnifications to achieve uncertainty-aware evidence fusion. Finally, we discuss open challenges and argue that future progress depends on unified multimodal frameworks integrating high-resolution visual data with clinical and biomedical knowledge to support interpretable and safe AI-assisted diagnosis.
