DALPHIN: Benchmarking Digital Pathology AI Copilots Against Pathologists on an Open Multicentric Dataset

Foundation models with visual question answering capabilities for digital pathology are emerging. Such unprecedented technology requires independent benchmarking to assess its potential in assisting pathologists in routine diagnostics. We created DALPHIN, the first multicentric open benchmark for pathology AI copilots, comprising 1236 images from 300 cases, spanning 130 rare to common diagnoses, 6 countries, and 14 subspecialties. The DALPHIN design and dataset are introduced alongside a human performance benchmark of 31 pathologists from 10 countries with varying expertise. We report results for two general-purpose (GPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro) and one pathology-specific copilot (PathChat+) for sequential and independent answer generation. We observed no statistically significant difference from expert-level performance in four of six tasks for PathChat, 2/6 tasks for Gemini, and 1/6 tasks for GPT. DALPHIN is publicly released with sequestered, indirectly accessible ground truth to foster robust and enduring benchmarking. Data, methods, and the evaluation platform are accessible through dalphin.grand-challenge.org.

Scaling Vision Transformers to Gigapixel Images via Hierarchical Self-Supervised Learning

Vision Transformers (ViTs) and their multi-scale and hierarchical variations have been successful at capturing image representations but their use has been generally studied for low-resolution images (e.g. - 256x256, 384384). For gigapixel whole-slide imaging (WSI) in computational pathology, WSIs can be as large as 150000x150000 pixels at 20X magnification and exhibit a hierarchical structure of visual tokens across varying resolutions: from 16x16 images capture spatial patterns among cells, to 4096x4096 images characterizing interactions within the tissue microenvironment. We introduce a new ViT architecture called the Hierarchical Image Pyramid Transformer (HIPT), which leverages the natural hierarchical structure inherent in WSIs using two levels of self-supervised learning to learn high-resolution image representations. HIPT is pretrained across 33 cancer types using 10,678 gigapixel WSIs, 408,218 4096x4096 images, and 104M 256x256 images. We benchmark HIPT representations on 9 slide-level tasks, and demonstrate that: 1) HIPT with hierarchical pretraining outperforms current state-of-the-art methods for cancer subtyping and survival prediction, 2) self-supervised ViTs are able to model important inductive biases about the hierarchical structure of phenotypes in the tumor microenvironment.
