arXiv:2607. 24743v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) hold immense potential to revolutionize clinical practice, yet deploying them in the medical domain is fundamentally a vision-centric challenge: models must absorb knowledge from heterogeneous 2D and 3D medical images, and evaluation protocols must align with radiologists' clinical practice and provide an accurate, fine-grained and factualness-driven assessment.

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) hold immense potential to revolutionize clinical practice, yet deploying them in the medical domain is fundamentally a vision-centric challenge: models must absorb knowledge from heterogeneous 2D and 3D medical images, and evaluation protocols must align with radiologists' clinical practice and provide an accurate, fine-grained and factualness-driven assessment. In this paper, we introduce ClinFusion, a vision-centric MLLM designed for holistic medical understanding that systematically addresses these limitations.

SynerMedGen is a unified framework that aligns medical multimodal understanding with generation tasks through task alignment. It introduces three generation‑aligned understanding tasks and a two‑stage training strategy that transfers representations learned during understanding to medical image synthesis. The model achieves strong zero‑shot performance on 22 synthesis tasks and outperforms state‑of‑the‑art specialized and unified models when combined with generation training, supported by a new 1M‑sample SynerMed dataset.
