PathPocket introduces a multimodal agentic framework for computational pathology that grounds diagnostic reasoning in a verified corpus of over 110,000 documents and a massive hypergraph of 4.55 million entities. By integrating evidence retrieval with gigapixel whole-slide image analysis, the system demonstrates significant improvements in diagnostic accuracy and pathologist confidence across 200,000 real-world cases. This approach addresses a critical gap in current AI applications by ensuring clinical decisions are traceable to specific literature rather than relying solely on black-box predictions.
A Multi-modal Agentic Co-pilot for Evidence Grounded Computational Pathology
arXiv:2606.08093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pathology is the cornerstone of modern medicine, where accurate decision-making relies heavily on evidence-based practices. While artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform clinical workflows, the intersection of AI and evidence-based medicine remains under-explored, with primitive attempts restricted to text-only general medicine. In this work, we present PathPocket, a multimodal AI agentic co-pilot designed specifically for evidence grounded pathology. We construct the most comprehensive pathology evidence corpus to date, encompassing approximately 110,472 public and authorized documents structured across a rigorous hierarchy of evidence from clinical guideline to expert opinion. From this meticulously graded foundation, we build a large-scale multimodal pathology hypergraph containing over 4.55 million entities and 7.10 million relations. Serving as a robust knowledge engine, this hypergraph provides traceable evidence for a collaborative multi-agent reasoning framework integrating input understanding, evidence retrieval, filtering, and diagnosis generation. This enables PathPocket to seamlessly resolve a wide spectrum of clinical tasks, ranging from text-only queries to complex multimodal diagnostics involving region-of-interest (ROI) and gigapixel whole-slide images (WSIs). We rigorously evaluate the system on a multidimensional benchmark of over 200,000 real-world cases, where it significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-arts. Crucially, extensive user studies demonstrate that PathPocket substantially improves the diagnostic accuracy and confidence of pathologists. By directly grounding pathology interpretations in verifiable literature, PathPocket offers a practical and scalable solution for the future of evidence grounded computational pathology.
