Abstract: A radiology report can already answer a clinical question, so it is hard to tell whether a vision-language model also uses the image. ModaLens, a pai...

arXiv:2606. 02276v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) trained on paired chest radiographs and radiology reports learn a shared embedding space that can preserve instance-level image-report correspondence.

arXiv:2606. 17710v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical vision-language models report strong chest radiograph accuracy, and this is increasingly read as evidence that they use the image.

arXiv:2604. 08941v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Medical Vision-Language Models (VLMs) answering binary presence questions on chest radiographs can fail in two linked ways: they are confidently wrong, and they change answers when a clinically equivalent question is rephrased.

arXiv:2606. 10066v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical vision-language models (VLMs) are evaluated on public benchmarks whose images and question-answer pairs have been freely downloadable for years, yet reported accuracy assumes these examples were absent from pretraining.

The paper introduces MedQA-MM, a benchmark that exposes shortcut reasoning in medical multimodal multiple-choice questions. By auditing prompts, images, and modalities, the authors show that models often rely on textual cues rather than visual evidence, with full-input accuracy at 62.63% but only 5.21% when restricted to text. The study highlights the need for route-level evidence to validate true medical image reasoning.
