The paper introduces an agentic AI-driven immersive simulation for High Dose Rate vaginal cylinder brachytherapy, combining Virtual Reality, mobile computing, and a knowledge-aware assistant powered by Retrieval-Augmented Generation. The system offers a high‑fidelity, risk‑free training environment that provides natural language interfaces and real‑time guidance during complex medical maneuvers. A prototype using Meta Quest 3 and a GPU‑accelerated backend demonstrates acceptable latency and high context precision, answer completeness, and relevance in the pedagogical support.

ClinAgent is a conversational system that uses a ReAct-based LLM agent to retrieve and synthesize clinical trial information from multiple sources such as ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, and a local dataset. The agent iteratively reasons over user queries, selects appropriate tools, and refines its actions to provide grounded, up-to-date responses in natural language across multi-turn interactions. Evaluation across three phases shows that DeepSeek (thinking mode) excels in planning quality while Gemini 3.0 Flash delivers the highest overall performance and expert ratings, demonstrating the promise of agentic AI for improving clinical trial data access.

The paper introduces SIC-Agents, a self‑improving framework designed to enhance simulation for pediatric serious illness communication (SIC) training. It presents two new benchmark suites—PitfallBench and DialogueBench—that assess simulators at both turn‑level and full‑dialogue levels, specifically addressing the unique challenges of multi‑party interactions and parental distress. Experiments demonstrate that SIC‑Agents surpasses static expert prompting, and the authors release the benchmarks for broader research use.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown promising reasoning capabilities in general domains, yet their performance remains limited in specialized settings such as healthcare, especially in multilingual and low-resource scenarios. This gap is critical in regions like rural India, where patients often express complex medical queries in native Indic languages and rely on multimodal inputs such as medical images.

The paper introduces MACD, a Multi-Agent Clinical Diagnosis framework that enables large language models to self‑learn clinical knowledge through a multi‑agent pipeline of summarization, refinement, and application. MACD is extended into a human‑AI collaborative workflow where multiple diagnostician agents consult iteratively, guided by a judge agent and human oversight. Evaluation on the MIMIC‑MACD cohort shows significant gains in diagnostic accuracy—an average 11.6 percentage‑point improvement over authoritative knowledge for open‑weight LLMs and an 18.3‑percentage‑point boost over physician‑only diagnosis in text‑only vignettes.

arXiv:2607. 11175v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The growing ability of large language models and vision language models to jointly interpret and reason over images and text is reshaping medical agents, moving them from task specific predictors toward autonomous systems that perceive, reason, plan, remember, and act in clinical environments.
