SCOUT is a concept‑grounded multimodal transformer that generates whole‑slide pathology reports by integrating local histological patterns, whole‑slide context, and expert‑curated diagnostic concepts. It uses evolving visual representations and recursively updated slide‑ and concept‑conditioned representations, with separate attention pathways during decoding that are fused adaptively for each token. Evaluated on TCGA‑BRCA, HistAI, and REG‑2025, SCOUT outperformed existing methods, improving BLEU, METEOR, and ROUGE‑L scores and raising the Clinical Report Quality Score on REG‑2025.

The paper introduces Locked Image Multiple Instance PreTraining (LIMIT), a method that aligns slide‑level pathology reports with patch‑level visual features by freezing a vision encoder and fine‑tuning a text encoder. LIMIT uses report embeddings as cross‑attention queries over bags of patch features, optimizing slide representations via InfoNCE. Applying LIMIT, the authors create CONCH‑Z, which achieves state‑of‑the‑art zero‑shot performance on 22 pathology tasks, outperforming vision‑language encoders trained on curated caption datasets and narrowing the gap with larger slide‑level foundation models.

The paper introduces FFM-CP, a framework that fuses multiple pathology vision‑language foundation models for few‑shot learning. It aligns heterogeneous representations with an Orthogonal Procrustes transformation, then uses a unified graph to refine support‑image features and class prototypes across backbones. Experiments on six histopathology datasets show that FFM‑CP outperforms the best single adapted model in 50 of 54 few‑shot comparisons.

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.
