| Summary: | Cancer imaging is crucial for advancing diagnostics and treatment, thus directly impacting medical practice. A wealth of medical information is collected worldwide in the form of digital medical images as a main component of electronic health records. Correspondingly, the unprecedented information, qualitative or quantitative, that is becoming available, calls for integrative multiplexed approaches linking genetic molecular profiles, imaging, and experimental omics evidence, but also clinical records, social-driven, and self-quantified data. The paper aims to emphasize and justify the potential of integrative approaches centered on a systems′ view of newly generated markers, namely digital ones. |
