arXiv:2606. 00092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Weakly-supervised classification of whole-slide images with attention-based multiple instance learning (ABMIL) on top of foundation features now reaches near-saturation on Camelyon16 slide-level performance, but the corresponding attention maps are an imperfect localization signal: in clinical interpretation, a model that classifies correctly without firing on the actual lesion is hard to trust.

arXiv:2608. 17370v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models promise a route to explainable clinical AI: rather than probe a classifier, model the distributions of healthy and diseased patients and read explanations off the geometry between them.

Current evaluation protocols for Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in Radiology Report Generation (RRG) rely on report-level metrics that measure lexical overlap or aggregate clinical correctness. However, such metrics do not test whether individual diagnostic statements stem from the actual pathological evidence visible in the image.
arXiv:2608. 00147v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language pretraining learns rich medical image representations from radiology reports, but previous model variants commonly operate within a single shared embedding space, so concept-level structure and interpretability must be recovered post hoc, limiting model transparency and, hence, clinical utility.

arXiv:2607. 04478v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated chest X-ray classification remains challenging due to severe class imbalance, co-occurring pathologies, and the loss of localized features in conventional architectures.

arXiv:2607. 25164v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A CT examination captures multiple organs, but many biomedical questions concern abnormalities, prognosis, or longitudinal change in a specific organ.

arXiv:2608. 16268v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical foundation models improve generalization when training AI models with limited labeled data, but remain confined to a single specialty, such as pathology or radiology, and to either sparse or dense outputs, such as classification or segmentation.

arXiv:2607. 20274v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical image encoders from different groups are increasingly treated as interchangeable, on the assumption that scale and clinical supervision concentrate their representations onto a shared structure.
