Can molecular markers of cancer be extracted from tissue morphology as seen in hematoxylin-eosin–stained images?

In this diagnostic study of tissue microarray hematoxylin-eosin–stained images from 5356 patients with breast cancer, molecular biomarker expression was found to be significantly associated with tissue histomorphology. A deep learning model was able to predict estrogen receptor expression solely from hematoxylin-eosin–stained images with noninferior accuracy to standard immunohistochemistry.
