AlphaRAD: Grounded Zero-Shot Classification in Chest Radiology via $\alpha$-Corrected Binary Cross Entropy and Factorized Latent Supervision

AlphaRAD introduces a grounded zero‑shot classification framework for chest radiology that leverages structured medical concepts extracted from reports and a novel α‑Corrected Binary Cross‑Entropy loss to reduce in‑batch noise. It also presents FLaS, a lightweight cross‑modal fusion module that factorizes VLPM representations into independent subspaces, improving spatial grounding without adding parameters. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on 16 classification benchmarks and sets new records on several grounding, phrase‑grounding, and segmentation datasets.

CONFLUX: A Latent Diffusion Model for 3D Chest-CT Synthesis with RL Post-Training

arXiv:2607. 02998v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Controllable generative models of 3D medical images can synthesize volumes with specified clinical attributes, but this demands samples that are simultaneously high-fidelity, natively 3D, and faithful to the requested conditioning.

From Alignment to Synthesis: Contrastive Volumetric Grounding for Text-to-CT Generation

The paper introduces a 3D-CLIP encoder trained with structured hard negatives to improve vision‑language alignment for text‑to‑CT generation. This encoder drives a latent diffusion model that operates directly in 3D latent space, eliminating spatial artifacts from super‑resolution pipelines. Experiments on the CT‑RATE dataset show state‑of‑the‑art image fidelity and factual correctness across 18 pathological conditions, with lower inference time and GPU memory usage than competing methods.
