Medical vision-language models typically generate diagnoses through single-pass inference without indicating which image regions support their conclusions. This lack of spatial grounding limits clinical utility: outputs cannot be audited, and models may hallucinate findings on normal scans.

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.

NV-Reason-CT is a generative vision‑language model designed for chest and abdominal CT analysis that preserves native 3D visual encoding and incorporates radiologist‑guided reasoning. The system couples a 3D vision transformer with a language model, feeding all visual tokens and their 3D coordinates directly into language decoding to maintain volumetric spatial information. Trained on a curated corpus of about 550,000 multimodal instruction examples, the model supports abnormality classification, report generation, and interactive reasoning, achieving strong performance on CT benchmarks and reducing expert interpretation time by 50%.
