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.

The paper introduces Locked Image Multiple Instance PreTraining (LIMIT), a method that aligns slide‑level pathology reports with patch‑level visual features by freezing a vision encoder and fine‑tuning a text encoder. LIMIT uses report embeddings as cross‑attention queries over bags of patch features, optimizing slide representations via InfoNCE. Applying LIMIT, the authors create CONCH‑Z, which achieves state‑of‑the‑art zero‑shot performance on 22 pathology tasks, outperforming vision‑language encoders trained on curated caption datasets and narrowing the gap with larger slide‑level foundation models.

Pathology vision-language models (VLMs) have recently progressed rapidly and are commonly evaluated by answer accuracy on pathology VQA benchmarks. However, we dig into current evaluations and identify three overlooked issues: 1) Visual evidence is not always necessary.
