DALE-CT introduces depth‑aware 2D slice encoders that learn an anatomical world model of chest CT scans without 3D or positional supervision. By sampling self‑supervised views across a physical $z$‑axis slab, the encoder captures how anatomy changes between neighboring slices, enabling it to recover slice ordering and distinguish slices by anatomy alone. The model, trained on a large 287k‑scan corpus, achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on CT‑RATE and is released with full code and evaluation tools.

The study introduces a gaze-informed transformer framework that classifies radiologist expertise during thoracic CT interpretation by integrating eye‑tracking data into volumetric feature learning. Using a DINOv2 backbone, the model incorporates a learnable log‑space bias in self‑attention and gaze‑weighted pooling of patch embeddings. Trained on 182 CT reading sessions from five radiologists, it achieved an ROC‑AUC of 0.91 and an F1 score of 0.86, outperforming adapted baseline methods.

arXiv:2608. 03890v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A clinically useful chest X-ray system must go beyond fluent report generation: it should classify findings with tunable decision thresholds, localize them spatially, and derive the anatomical measurements upon which many diagnoses depend.

The paper identifies a representational bottleneck in 3D CT embeddings that limits pathology coverage in automated radiology reports. It introduces AdaRAG-CT, an adaptive retrieval-augmented framework that supplements visual features with controlled textual retrieval to improve report generation. On the CT-RATE benchmark, AdaRAG-CT achieves state‑of‑the‑art clinical efficacy, raising Clinical F1 from 0.420 to 0.480.
