The accurate diagnosis of spinal pathologies depends heavily on radiological interpretation, yet automated systems are hindered by the lack of diverse, high-quality benchmarks. In this study, we present PhenSPINE, a Magnetic Resonance Imaging dataset comprising 16,813 images from 250 patients, curated to facilitate advanced deep learning research.

The paper introduces NeuroFusion, an assistive brain‑MRI report generator that surfaces latent tumor signals from a frozen Mistral‑7B backbone. By adding discriminative field‑classifier heads over per‑lesion features, NeuroFusion restores accurate diagnoses (meningioma 0.92, metastasis 0.75) and improves prose quality while reducing latency 5–6×. A controlled negative result shows that overriding the decoder with a learned diagnosis pin harms performance, and grammar‑constrained decoding yields high schema‑validity (92.3%).

MIRTO is an evaluation protocol for unsupervised anomaly segmentation in brain MRI that explicitly documents key methodological choices—such as registration alignment, threshold setting, and false‑positive budgeting—and measures their impact. It applies a registration check, uses validation data for thresholding, reports realized false‑positive volumes, and repeats each comparison across 15,552 evaluation pipelines with bootstrap intervals. In a study on four UAD methods and 312 BraTS 2020 subjects, MIRTO revealed that an axis‑order mismatch dramatically lowered a diffusion model’s voxel AUROC, and that many performance differences were driven by lesion definition and threshold transfer rather than model quality.

MultiViewDx is a physician‑validated multimodal instruction dataset that links medical imaging studies with patient context and normalizes heterogeneous reports into an evidence‑linked workflow (evidence → findings → differential discussion → diagnosis). The dataset covers a wide range of imaging modalities and uses a unified image‑text retriever to ensure that instruction synthesis is grounded in source‑supported evidence. Fine‑tuned models on MultiViewDx achieve the highest average accuracy on four MedVQA benchmarks and receive the strongest overall rating on JAMA Clinical Challenge cases, with ablations confirming the importance of case‑level multi‑view organization and evidence‑linked reasoning.
