SlideChat is a multimodal generative artificial intelligence assistant for whole-slide computational pathology across cancer types

★ 7.5 / 10 AI Nature Cancer 2026-09-01

Chen et al. developed SlideChat, a multimodal generative AI assistant for whole-slide computational pathology, and benchmarked it across 27 pathology tasks spanning 33 cancer types. Expert pathologists rated the system as clinically relevant and accurate, suggesting its potential utility as a diagnostic support tool in routine histopathological assessment. The pan-cancer scope and expert validation distinguish it from narrower AI pathology models, though prospective clinical deployment data are not yet reported.
