Integrating knowledge from case reports: a medical ontology based multimodal information system with structured summary

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper presents a multimodal information system that integrates structured clinical summaries, medical images, and biomedical named entities from 52,949 open‑access case reports published between 2000 and 2021. This information is organized within a well‑structured medical ontology, and a user interface is designed to help junior clinicians search and browse case reports efficiently. The system aims to improve the identification and diagnosis of rare diseases by overcoming the limitations of traditional keyword‑based retrieval on unstructured case reports.

Neighborhood-Aware Dual Biomedical Entity Linking

arXiv:2608. 04144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Biomedical entity linking grounds mentions in clinical and scientific text to entities in a curated knowledge base (KB) with ontological structure, which supports downstream applications such as literature-scale information extraction and patient-record normalization.

Health System Scale Semantic Search Across Unstructured Clinical Notes

arXiv:2604. 25605v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Introduction: Semantic search, which retrieves documents based on conceptual similarity rather than keywords, offers advantages for retrieval of clinical information.

A Multimodal Agentic Pathology Co-pilot via Evidence Grounded Reasoning

PathPocket is a multimodal AI co‑pilot that grounds pathology decision‑making in evidence. It builds the largest pathology evidence corpus (≈110,472 documents) and a hypergraph of 4.55 million entities and 7.10 million relations to support traceable reasoning. The system handles text and multimodal queries, including ROI and gigapixel whole‑slide images, and outperforms current state‑of‑the‑art models on a benchmark of over 200,000 real‑world cases, improving pathologists’ diagnostic accuracy and confidence.

Case2Flow: Bridging Patient Cases and Guideline Flowcharts through Multimodal Retrieval

Case2Flow is a new task that retrieves the most relevant guideline flowchart for a given patient case from a collection of medical guideline documents. The authors created FlowAtlas, a curated corpus of 202 flowcharts extracted from 2,080 guidelines, and a pipeline that generates 1,911 aligned case‑flowchart pairs. Their evaluation shows that existing multimodal retrieval methods often overrely on keywords and spurious token‑patch matches, and they propose CRISP, a training‑free scoring method that improves Recall@1 by up to 18.71 percentage points and gains preliminary feasibility evidence from a blinded physician assessment.
