This study evaluates the classification accuracy of six modern deep‑learning architectures—VGG19, ResNet50, GoogleNet, ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, and Vision Transformers—on breast ultrasound images categorized by BI‑RADS. Using 2,945 training images and 936 validation images from 1,540 patients, the models were tested in full fine‑tuning, linear evaluation, and training‑from‑scratch settings. The best performance was achieved with full fine‑tuning, yielding 76.39 % accuracy and a 67.94 % F1 score.

The paper introduces the FAPT-M Dataset, a pathology‑confirmed multimodal collection of 910 breast patients that includes ultrasound images, structured clinical attributes, and diagnostic descriptions. It proposes a clinically guided multimodal framework that fuses DenseNet visual encoding, CLIP‑inspired text encoding, and lightweight clinical encoding, enhanced by clinical‑conditioned adaptive modulation, cross‑modal Transformer fusion, and dual‑path representation learning. The method achieves 77.64% accuracy, 73.38% F1‑score, and 89.74% AUC, outperforming CNN, Transformer, and vision‑language baselines, and demonstrates the value of three‑modality fusion through ablation and class‑balanced studies.

arXiv:2511. 15968v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: External validation of breast ultrasound segmentation models remains limited because internal train--test splits do not capture domain shifts across imaging systems, acquisition protocols, and patient populations.

Breast cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality among women. Its clinical management requires multimodal reasoning across a clinical workflow that spans \textit{screening}, \textit{diagnosis} and \textit{treatment planning}, where each stage involves distinct imaging modalities, task objectives, and reasoning patterns.
arXiv:2607. 12075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Background: Deep learning models can classify thyroid nodules on ultrasound, but reliable clinical decision support also requires calibrated probabilities, uncertainty estimation, and selective referral, particularly under dataset shift.

OmniMed-Jev is a new medical multimodal model that represents each decision as a Choice, Noul, or Score over a runtime-supplied candidate set, returning a full probability distribution for each decision. By unifying diverse imaging modalities and prediction tasks into a single candidate-conditioned probability model, it makes heterogeneous outputs comparable probabilities rather than task-specific strings. In controlled comparisons against a generative baseline, OmniMed-Jev’s reported probabilities align more closely with observed correctness, reducing calibration error by up to an order of magnitude and reliability error by up to two, while maintaining comparable point-prediction performance.
