arXiv:2607. 22861v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pathology foundation models (FMs) produce powerful tile-level representations which remain sensitive to scanner and staining variability, undermining deployment across laboratories.

arXiv:2605. 30716v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating clinically useful pathology reports for pathology cases from whole-slide images (WSIs) is challenging due to gigapixel resolution, long visual-token sequences, and the complexity of case-level reasoning, where a single case may contain multiple WSIs with heterogeneous tissues and ambiguous findings.

arXiv:2607. 26765v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Background/Objectives: Dermoscopic skin lesion classifiers often lose accuracy under domain shift across imaging devices, illumination, and capture artifacts.

arXiv:2606. 17702v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Characterising the tumour microenvironment (TME) from routine H&E-stained histology images requires simultaneous cell segmentation, feature extraction, and interpretable clinical reporting.

arXiv:2608. 03990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic histopathology image generation has emerged as an approach that may address data scarcity in computational pathology, yet current evaluation methodologies may not fully assess synthetic data quality for medical applications.

arXiv:2605. 06177v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reproducing and comparing deep research agents today is hard: the same backbone evaluated on the same benchmark can report different accuracies across papers because the harness and tool registry differ, and integrating a new model into a comparable evaluation surface costs weeks of model-specific engineering.

arXiv:2601. 05148v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pathology foundation models substantially advanced the possibilities in computational pathology --- yet tradeoffs in terms of performance, robustness, and computational requirements remained, which limited their clinical deployment.

arXiv:2606. 06983v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computational pathology requires visual representations that transfer across diverse clinical endpoints and remain robust to variation in magnification, staining, scanner type, slide preparation, and input resolution.

arXiv:2606. 11702v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To make clinically grounded decisions, medical AI agents are expected to go beyond simple recognition and be capable of tool retrieval, evidence acquisition, and integration.

Background/Objectives: Dermoscopic skin lesion classifiers often lose accuracy under domain shift across imaging devices, illumination, and capture artifacts. We study how data augmentation improves the robustness of a binary malignant-versus-non-malignant classifier, with emphasis on out-of-domain (OOD) generalization.
arXiv:2608. 13711v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computer-aided detection (CADe) systems for colonoscopy promise to reduce clinical miss rates, yet reliable real-world deployment remains elusive.
