arXiv:2510. 15042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the 3D medical image domain, vision-language pre-training is used to create vision-language encoders (VLEs) that can support radiologists by retrieving patients with similar abnormalities, predicting likelihoods of abnormality, or, with downstream adaptation, generating radiological reports.

arXiv:2607. 24743v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) hold immense potential to revolutionize clinical practice, yet deploying them in the medical domain is fundamentally a vision-centric challenge: models must absorb knowledge from heterogeneous 2D and 3D medical images, and evaluation protocols must align with radiologists' clinical practice and provide an accurate, fine-grained and factualness-driven assessment.

MTMed3D is a multi-task Transformer-based model that jointly performs 3D detection, segmentation, and classification in medical imaging. It uses a shared Transformer encoder to produce multi-scale features, with separate CNN decoders for each task. Evaluated on BraTS 2018 and 2019, it achieves strong results, especially in detection, while reducing computational cost and inference time compared to single-task models.

Textual descriptions can reduce ambiguity in medical image segmentation by specifying the finding and location to be delineated. Existing text-guided methods mainly improve where image and language fe...
Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) hold immense potential to revolutionize clinical practice, yet deploying them in the medical domain is fundamentally a vision-centric challenge: models must absorb knowledge from heterogeneous 2D and 3D medical images, and evaluation protocols must align with radiologists' clinical practice and provide an accurate, fine-grained and factualness-driven assessment. In this paper, we introduce ClinFusion, a vision-centric MLLM designed for holistic medical understanding that systematically addresses these limitations.
