The paper introduces GDMRG, a Graph-Augmented Dual-Stream Medical Report Generation framework that incorporates a Topological Knowledge Internalization module using a Graph Convolutional Network to encode disease co-occurrence priors. It employs a dual-stream classifier—one branch generating diagnostic prompts under topological constraints and an auxiliary branch dynamically calibrating decision boundaries for imbalanced samples—alongside a Diagnosis-Guided Spatial Attention mechanism to align visual features with clinical semantics. Experiments on MIMIC-CXR show competitive clinical efficacy and natural language fluency, with strong zero-shot performance on IU X-Ray.

The study evaluates whether disease can be identified from reactive, non‑lesional brain tissue in intracranial biopsies. Using four foundation‑model encoders within an attention‑based multiple‑instance learning framework on 245 whole‑slide images, the authors find that disease labels remain predictive even after controlling for slide size and sampling bias, and that performance is similar across all encoders. Signed instance‑contribution maps and expert review confirm that predictive signals localize to reactive parenchyma rather than artifacts such as blood.

The paper introduces UdonCare, a hierarchy‑pruning method that iteratively partitions patients into latent domains using medical ontologies, aiming to improve domain generalization in clinical prediction tasks. It addresses challenges of missing domain labels and lack of clinical insight by discovering hierarchy‑grounded patient domains. Experiments on MIMIC‑III, MIMIC‑IV, and eICU datasets show UdonCare outperforms eight baseline methods across four prediction tasks with significant domain gaps.

The study evaluates whether disease can be identified from reactive, non‑lesional brain tissue in intracranial biopsies. Using four foundation‑model encoders as frozen patch encoders within an attention‑based multiple‑instance learning framework, the authors benchmark performance on 245 whole‑slide images from 186 patients. They find that coarse disease‑category prediction can be largely explained by slide size, but finer diagnostic distinctions remain predictive above chance, with no significant difference among the encoders, suggesting weak morphological signals can be recovered even from tissue traditionally considered non‑diagnostic.
