arXiv:2603. 19957v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pathology reports are structured, multi-granular documents encoding diagnostic conclusions, histological grades, and ancillary test results across one or more anatomical sites; yet existing pathology vision-language models (VLMs) reduce this output to a flat label or free-form text.

As vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly applied to medical AI, existing benchmarks mainly focus on evaluating their diagnosis ability over given medical images and texts, implicitly assuming that standardized medical images, texts or question-answer pairs are already prepared. However, this assumption does not hold when we apply VLMs in real clinical practice, where medical data is often raw, heterogeneous, and fragmented across different sources.
arXiv:2608. 12086v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models, such as contrastive language-image pre-training (CLIP)-based approaches, have reached state-of-the-art (SOTA) results in medical artificial intelligence.

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. 09562v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical Vision-Language Models (VLMs) exhibit strong zero-shot performance, yet their effectiveness still declines on out-of-distribution (OOD) data due to domain shifts and class bias inherited from large-scale pretraining.

Pathology vision-language models (VLMs) have recently progressed rapidly and are commonly evaluated by answer accuracy on pathology VQA benchmarks. However, we dig into current evaluations and identify three overlooked issues: 1) Visual evidence is not always necessary.
arXiv:2511. 18676v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current vision-language models (VLMs) in medicine are primarily designed for categorical question answering (e.
