arXiv:2607. 21068v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated detection of vision impairing retina-based ocular conditions from fundus images is important for early screening, timely referral and reducing dependency on specialist-only assessment, for which neural network-based deep learning (DL) models have been widely utilized.

Color Fundus Photography (CFP) is a primary non-invasive imaging modality for large-scale screening of ophthalmic and systemic diseases. Existing surveys mainly summarize task-specific algorithms, datasets, or preprocessing techniques independently, lacking a unified perspective on their co-evolution with modern artificial intelligence.
arXiv:2608. 07651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) show promise in medical image interpretation but suffer from hallucination, limited accuracy, and run-to-run inconsistency.

arXiv:2608. 09752v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retinal fundus images frequently exhibit multiple co-occurring pathologies, yet standard deep learning classifiers apply static, identical computation to every image regardless of the underlying disease distribution.

Color Fundus Photography (CFP) offers a low-cost and non-invasive route for ischemic heart disease (IHD) screening, but current studies are limited by scarce public benchmarks and ineffective fusion of retinal images with sparse clinical variables. We propose IDNet, a multimodal framework with a Cross-Modal Distillation Aggregator (CDA) that uses learnable queries to sequentially integrate left-eye, right-eye, and clinical features, mitigating the imbalance between high-dimensional visual features and low-dimensional tabular inputs.
arXiv:2607. 27289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The promise of multimodal fusion lies in combining complementary sources of evidence, yet more evidence does not always yield a better prediction.
