Open DOI
Expert diagnostic reasoning in breast pathology: insights from international masterclass question-and-answer sessions
Aims: Standardised diagnostic criteria in breast pathology primarily guide classification rather than real-world decision-making in borderline or context-dependent scenarios. This study evaluated question-and-answer data from internation...

Incidental detection of JAK2 V617F mutations in next-generation sequencing analysis of solid tumours: a guide to further workup
Objectives: Genomic alterations related to hematopoietic elements may be seen in solid tumour next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels. Here, we report the incidental finding of JAK2 V617F mutations in NGS performed on solid tumours. Meth...

Clinical translation of gut microbiome biomarkers and host immune dysregulation in colorectal neoplasia: a systematic review with Clinical and Molecular Pathology Prioritisation
Aims: Gut microbiome signatures are promising non-invasive biomarkers for colorectal neoplasia, but clinical translation is limited by heterogeneity in populations, platforms, validation and comparator tests. We evaluated microbiome-base...

Interobserver agreement among pathologists in the histological diagnosis of coeliac disease: a systematic review supports the British Society of Gastroenterology guidelines’ integrated approach to diagnosis
Aims Histological assessment of duodenal biopsies remains central to the diagnosis of coeliac disease (CD), as detailed in the 2026 British Society for Gastroenterology guidelines on the diagnosis and management of CD, which recommend th...

No eosinophilic and lymphocytic infiltration in lower oesophageal sphincter biopsies from achalasia patients
Introduction: Achalasia has been proposed as a muscle-predominant variant of eosinophilic or lymphocytic oesophagitis. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) enables direct biopsy of the oesophageal muscular layer. We assessed eosinophilic an...

Quantifying Ki67 for characterising molecular subtypes in breast cancer: a comparative study of visual assessment and digital image analysis
Aims Ki67 index assessment is crucial for breast cancer classification and prognosis. We compared Ki67 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using visual counting-eyeballing (VA-E), manual counting on images (VA-M) and digital image analysis (DI...

Deep learning techniques in predicting BRAF mutation status in cutaneous melanoma from histopathologic images
Aims To develop and validate a deep learning framework for discriminating BRAF mutation status in cutaneous melanoma from routine H&E whole-slide images (WSIs) as a proof-of-concept complementary approach alongside molecular testing. Met...
