The paper presents a plug‑and‑play framework that uses concept-based interpretation to debug medical imaging models. By aligning a single‑modality encoder with BioMedCLIP, the authors build a Concept Bottleneck Model that allows concept‑level interventions to distinguish causal from spurious features. Experiments on Mayo Clinic ultrasound and CheXpert chest X‑ray data show that these interventions can reliably diagnose model issues and even improve performance through guided fine‑tuning.

The paper introduces an agentic AI Scientist workflow that automates the entire baseline development process for medical imaging by combining literature-guided reasoning, automated code generation, and hypothesis-driven experimentation. Evaluated on four public benchmarks covering segmentation, classification, and detection, the pipeline consistently improves validation performance, achieving competitive leaderboard results such as 6th place on both PUMA tracks and 31st on MILK10k. The approach also shows strong domain generalization on MIDOG25 across scanners, tumor types, and species, demonstrating that a skill-based, literature-guided agentic workflow can reduce engineering effort without task-specific redesign.
