    Abstract Spatial findings have shaped on our understanding of breast cancer. In this review, we discuss how spatial methods, including spatial transcriptomics and proteomics and the resultant understanding of spatial relationships, have contributed to concepts regarding cancer progression and treatment. In addition to discussing traditional approaches, we examine how emerging multiplex imaging technologies have contributed to the field and how they might influence future research.
