Spatial -OMICS technologies facilitate the interrogation of molecular profiles in the context of the underlying histopathology and tissue microenvironment. Paired analysis of histopathology and molecular data can provide pathologists with otherwise unobtainable insights into biological mechanisms. To connect the disparate molecular and histopathologic features into a single workspace, we developed FUSION (Functional Unit State IdentificatiON in WSIs [Whole Slide Images]), a web-based tool that provides users with a broad array of visualization and analytical tools including deep learning-based algorithms for in-depth interrogation of spatial -OMICS datasets and their associated high-resolution histology images. FUSION enables end-to-end analysis of functional tissue units (FTUs), automatically aggregating underlying molecular data to provide a histopathology-based medium for analyzing healthy and altered cell states and driving new discoveries using "pathomic" features. We demonstrate FUSION using 10x Visium spatial transcriptomics (ST) data from both formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) and frozen prepared datasets consisting of healthy and diseased tissue. Through several use-cases, we demonstrate how users can identify spatial linkages between quantitative pathomics, qualitative image characteristics, and spatial --omics

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
