NV-Reason-CT: 3D Visual Language Model for CT Analysis

NV-Reason-CT is a generative vision‑language model designed for chest and abdominal CT analysis that preserves native 3D visual encoding and incorporates radiologist‑guided reasoning. The system couples a 3D vision transformer with a language model, feeding all visual tokens and their 3D coordinates directly into language decoding to maintain volumetric spatial information. Trained on a curated corpus of about 550,000 multimodal instruction examples, the model supports abnormality classification, report generation, and interactive reasoning, achieving strong performance on CT benchmarks and reducing expert interpretation time by 50%.

LUCAID: Agentic Multimodal AI for Lung Cancer Precision Pathology

LUCAID is an agentic multimodal AI system designed for precision lung cancer pathology, integrating nine modules that cover the entire routine workflow—from quality control and tumor detection to histological subtyping, microenvironment profiling, cellularity quantification, and biomarker scoring (PD‑L1, MET, TROP‑2). The system generates automated structured reports and allows interactive querying of module outputs. In prospective clinical validation, LUCAID achieved 93.0% concordance with an expert‑panel reference standard for clinically actionable decisions, outperforming five experienced thoracic pathologists who ranged from 68.3% to 81.1% concordance.
