Efficient diagnosis of IDH-mutant gliomas: 1p/19qNET assesses 1p/19q codeletion status using weakly-supervised learning.

Accurate identification of molecular alterations in gliomas is crucial for their diagnosis and treatment. Although, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) allows for the observation of diverse and heterogeneous alterations, it is inherently time-consuming and challenging due to the limitations of the molecular method. Here, we report the development of 1p/19qNET, an advanced deep-learning network designed to predict fold change values of 1p and 19q chromosomes and classify isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant gliomas from whole-slide images.
