让AI像医生一样主动寻找病理切片中的关键证据。

Whole-slide visual reasoning requires identifying sparse diagnostic evidence in gigapixel pathology slides and integrating observations across spatial scales. Existing WSI methods either compress densely sampled patches into global representations or use pretrained vision-language models with heuristic region selection, weakening links between predictions and morphology or lacking pathology-trained observation policies. We present AdaptivePath, an active-perception framework that formulates WSI evidence acquisition as sequential decision making. The Navigator learns question-agnostic abnormality-driven navigation from pathologist-reviewed labels to select observation locations and spatial extents, avoiding costly question-specific trajectory annotations. We train this policy through alternating representation learning and proximal policy optimization, followed by fine-tuning with geometric and appearance consistency objectives to stabilize focus trajectories. During inference, the Navigator hierarchically acquires sparse observations from low to high magnification under a limited ROI budget. A Morphology Interpreter converts observations into question-conditioned evidence, while the Deliberator evaluates evidence and revises intermediate answers across magnifications. The Arbiter integrates deliberation history to produce final answers. AdaptivePath achieves state-of-the-art zero-shot performance on WSI and region pathology VQA benchmarks and reaches 80.14% accuracy for cancer subtype classification across six TCGA cohorts. In a blinded diagnostic-utility study, pathologists using AdaptivePath-selected observation sequences achieve 82.9% accuracy. These results demonstrate that learned active perception enables effective and traceable visual reasoning over gigapixel pathology slides.
