Background: Patients with ER-positive/HER2-negative early breast cancer of low or intermediate grade are generally considered to have a favourable prognosis, yet a number will recur. This risk is poorly captured by standard clinicopathological factors. AI-based medical devices for whole slide image (WSI) analyses used for risk-stratification often predict on slide-level thereby overlooking spatial localisation of the biomarkers. We hypothesise that the spatial distribution of a previously reported AI-based marker provides independent prognostic value beyond its global score. Patients and Metho
