: TSR is an independent prognostic factor for survival assessment in HGSOC. Stroma-rich tumors have a worse prognosis and, in the case of NACT, a higher likelihood of pleural metastasis. OTSR provides a cost and time-efficient way of determining TSR with high reproducibility and reduced inter-observer variability.
