The advent and success of new drugs for treating HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer has led to a constant improvement in disease and progression-free survival as well as overall survival. Despite these advantages, the overall survival and quality of life of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer brain metastases are significantly worse than the ones of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer metastases outside the brain. For this reason, prevention and treatment of brain metastasis remain a major clinical challenge and the keys to further improving the clinical and survival outcomes of HER2-positive breast cancer patients.

There is no doubt that advanced artificial intelligence models and high quality data are the keys to success in developing computational pathology tools. Although the overall volume of pathology data keeps increasing, a lack of quality data is a common issue when it comes to a specific task due to several reasons including privacy and ethical issues with patient data. In this work, we propose to exploit knowledge distillation, i.

Transformer-based technology has attracted widespread attention in medical image segmentation. Due to the diversity of organs, effective modelling of multi-scale information and establishing long-range dependencies between pixels are crucial for successful medical image segmentation. However, most studies rely on a fixed single-scale window for modeling, which ignores the potential impact of window size on performance.
