# ♆ Patho-Bench
[📄 Preprint](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2502.06750) | [Code](https://github.com/mahmoodlab/Patho-Bench)
<img src="patho_bench_public.png" alt="Patho-Bench" style="width: 38%;" align="right"/>
**Patho-Bench is designed to evaluate patch and slide encoder foundation models for whole-slide images (WSIs).**
This HuggingFace repository contains the data splits for the public Patho-Bench tasks. Please visit our codebase on [GitHub](https://github.com/mahmoodlab/Patho-Bench) for the full codebase and benchmark implementation.
This project was developed by the [Mahmood Lab](https://faisal.ai/) at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital. This work was funded by NIH NIGMS R35GM138216.
> [!NOTE]
> Contributions are welcome! If you'd like to submit a new dataset and/or task for inclusion in Patho-Bench, please reach out to us via the [Issues](https://github.com/mahmoodlab/Patho-Bench/issues) tab of our Github repo.
Currently, Patho-Bench contains the following task families. We will add more tasks in the future. For further details on each task, please refer to the [THREADS foundation model paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.16652).
| **Family** | **Description** | **Tasks** |
|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------|
| **Morphological Subtyping** | Classifying distinct morphological patterns associated with different disease subtypes | 4 |
| **Tumor Grading** | Assigning a grade based on cellular differentiation and growth patterns | 2 |
| **Molecular Subtyping** | Predicting antigen presence (e.g., via IHC staining) | 3 |
| **Mutation Prediction** | Predicting specific genetic mutations in tumors | 21 |
| **Treatment Response & Assessment** | Evaluating patient response to treatment | 6 |
| **Survival Prediction** | Predicting survival outcomes and risk stratification | 6 |
## 🔥 Latest updates
- **February 2025**: Patho-Bench is now available on HuggingFace.
## ⚡ Installation
Install the required packages:
```
pip install --upgrade datasets
pip install --upgrade huggingface_hub
```
## 🔑 Authentication
```python
from huggingface_hub import login
login(token="YOUR_HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN")
```
## ⬇️ Usage
The Patho-Bench data splits are designed for use with the Patho-Bench [software package](https://github.com/mahmoodlab/Patho-Bench). However, you are welcome to use the data splits in your custom pipeline. Each task is associated with a YAML file containing task metadata and a TSV file containing the sample IDs, slide IDs, and labels.
> [!NOTE]
> Patho-Bench only provides the data splits and labels, NOT the raw image data. You will need to download the raw image data from the respective dataset repositories (see links below).
### Download an individual task
```python
import datasets
dataset='cptac_coad'
task='KRAS_mutation'
datasets.load_dataset(
'MahmoodLab/Patho-Bench',
cache_dir='/path/to/saveto',
dataset_to_download=dataset, # Throws error if source not found
task_in_dataset=task, # Throws error if task not found in dataset
trust_remote_code=True
)
```
### Download all tasks from a dataset
```python
import datasets
dataset='cptac_coad'
task='*'
datasets.load_dataset(
'MahmoodLab/Patho-Bench',
cache_dir='/path/to/saveto',
dataset_to_download=dataset,
task_in_dataset=task,
trust_remote_code=True
)
```
### Download entire Patho-Bench [4.2 MB]
```python
import datasets
dataset='*'
datasets.load_dataset(
'MahmoodLab/Patho-Bench',
cache_dir='/path/to/saveto',
dataset_to_download=dataset,
trust_remote_code=True
)
```
