arXiv:2605. 30716v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating clinically useful pathology reports for pathology cases from whole-slide images (WSIs) is challenging due to gigapixel resolution, long visual-token sequences, and the complexity of case-level reasoning, where a single case may contain multiple WSIs with heterogeneous tissues and ambiguous findings.

LanGuSTE is a patch‑selection framework for whole slide image analysis that uses vision‑language models and large language model knowledge. It introduces Cross‑Scale Visual Prompt Tuning to align low‑resolution and high‑resolution patches, and a coarse‑to‑fine selection module that encodes only informative high‑resolution patches. Experiments show LanGuSTE cuts overall processing time to about one‑third of the baseline while matching or surpassing diagnostic performance of exhaustive and state‑of‑the‑art methods.

Textual descriptions can reduce ambiguity in medical image segmentation by specifying the finding and location to be delineated. Existing text-guided methods mainly improve where image and language fe...
arXiv:2510. 15042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the 3D medical image domain, vision-language pre-training is used to create vision-language encoders (VLEs) that can support radiologists by retrieving patients with similar abnormalities, predicting likelihoods of abnormality, or, with downstream adaptation, generating radiological reports.

Multimodal Routing and Region Refinement for Language-Guided Medical Image Segmentation (MRSeg) is a parameter‑efficient framework that uses frozen ConvNeXt‑Tiny and PubMedBERT encoders to extract multiscale visual features and clinical text tokens. A joint router predicts a sparse mixture over low‑rank adapter bases, enabling separate adaptation for two visual scales and text while keeping feature‑specific parameters distinct. Region Bridge aggregates dense visual tokens into latent regions using text‑derived queries, refines them via self‑attention and text cross‑attention, and redistributes the refined information back to the feature maps, culminating in a multiscale decoder that combines refined semantic features with shallow image evidence. MRSeg achieves state‑of‑the‑art Dice/mIoU scores on QaTa‑COV19 and MosMedData+ with only 7.11 M trainable parameters and 7.60 GFLOPs.
