Abstract

Intratumoral heterogeneity associates with more aggressive disease progression and worse patient outcomes. Understanding the reasons enabling the emergence of such heterogeneity remains incomplete, which restricts our ability to manage it from a therapeutic perspective. Technological advancements such as high-throughput molecular imaging, single-cell omics, and spatial transcriptomics allow recording of patterns of spatiotemporal heterogeneity in a longitudinal manner, thus offering insights into the multiscale dynamics of its evolution. Here, we review the latest technological trends and biological insights from molecular diagnostics as well as spatial transcriptomics, both of which have witnessed burgeoning growth in the recent past in terms of mapping heterogeneity within tumor cell types as well as the stromal constitution. We also discuss ongoing challenges, indicating possible ways to integrate insights across these methods to have a systems-level spatiotemporal map of heterogeneity in each tumor and a more systematic investigation of the implications of heterogeneity for patient outcomes. © 2023 The Authors.
