提出新方法在不重训练模型前提下，找出能解释病理图像分类结果的少量关键区域。

Whole-slide image (WSI) multiple instance learning (MIL) classifiers can achieve strong slide-level AUC while leaving the full-bag prediction opaque. Attention scores are widely reused as post-hoc explanations, but high attention can reflect aggregation preference rather than a compact, model-sufficient rationale. We study post-hoc rationale highlighting for frozen WSI-MIL: given a trained classifier, can its slide-level prediction be recovered from a compact, output-consistent tile subset without retraining the backbone? We instantiate this with Finding Optimal Contextual Instances (FOCI), a lightweight rationale-readout layer over a frozen MIL backbone. FOCI is trained with model-output sufficiency and exclusion objectives over keep/drop tile subsets, evaluated with an insertion-style Sequential Reveal Protocol (SRP) adapted to WSI-MIL, and summarized by the Selection Headroom Index (SHI). Across three WSI benchmarks and seven MIL backbones, FOCI reveals that compact rationales are selection-headroom dependent: transformer and multi-branch attention aggregators can admit compact rationales, near-minimal attention-pooling baselines enter a selection-saturation regime, and hard-selection backbones can conflict with an external readout. For TransMIL, relative to its documented CLS-proxy ranking, FOCI reduces the Minimum Sufficient K (MSK) tile count by 32-56% across benchmarks, while ACMIL+FOCI attains the highest mean SHI (+0.465). Deletion-based perturbation and selected-only downstream evaluation provide complementary checks. These results position FOCI as a model-level interpretability and audit layer: selected tiles are not claims of clinical or pathologist-level diagnostic sufficiency, but candidate rationales that offer a compact, reviewable view of when a frozen MIL prediction can be localized to a small output-consistent subset.
