Enhancing Pathological VLMs with Cross-scale Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 17412v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pathological images are inherently multi-scale, requiring pathologists to integrate evidence from global tissue architecture at low magnification to cellular morphology at higher magnification for accurate diagnosis.

PathScale-R1: Cross-scale Reasoning for Pathological Image Analysis

Pathological diagnosis is inherently multi-scale, requiring the integration of global tissue architecture at low magnification with cellular morphology at higher magnification. However, existing pathology benchmarks and vision-language models (VLMs) are still largely developed under single-scale settings, limiting their ability to learn clinically meaningful multi-magnification reasoning.

OpenMedReason: Scientific Reasoning Supervision for Medical Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2606. 12169v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: High-stakes clinical use of large vision-language models (LVLMs) requires reasoning that is grounded in visual evidence and clinical knowledge, not just correct final answers.

IRIS: An Intelligent Vision-Language System for Ocular Surface Diseases via Topic Tree and Scene-Driven VQA Generation

arXiv:2607. 04344v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) demonstrate remarkable generic capabilities, their clinical reasoning in specialized domains like ocular surface diseases (OSDs) is severely hindered by a paucity of high-fidelity, multimodal instruction-tuning data.

From Reasoning to Pixels: Grounded Medical Multimodal LLMs for VQA and Segmentation

The paper introduces MedREAL, a unified framework that aligns linguistic reasoning with spatial grounding for medical visual question answering and segmentation. MedREAL employs Seg Anchored Reasoning Pooling (SARP) to extract semantic evidence from segmentation tokens and a Reasoning-to-Visual (R2V) fusion mechanism to integrate these features into a segmentation pipeline. Using the newly created MedRAVS-13K dataset, MedREAL achieves superior performance, reporting 68.49% gIoU and 70.47% cIoU, and generates evidence masks that consistently match textual diagnoses.

PathAgentBench: Benchmarking Evidence-Seeking Vision-Language Models on Whole-Slide Pathology Image

Whole-slide image (WSI) diagnosis requires identifying diagnostically relevant regions, examining them across magnifications, and integrating multi-scale evidence. However, most existing pathology benchmarks evaluate models on pre-cropped patches or pre-extracted slide features, leaving their ability to acquire evidence directly from gigapixel WSIs largely untested.
