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.
arXiv:2607. 04344v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) demonstrate remarkable generic capabilities, their clinical reasoning in specialized domains like ocular surface diseases (OSDs) is severely hindered by a paucity of high-fidelity, multimodal instruction-tuning data.
