Medical foundation models learn latent representations of clinically meaningful phenotypes, yet their ability to support controllable image generation remains largely unexplored. We evaluate four retinal foundation models within the representation tokenizer framework and examine whether demographic and clinical information encoded in latent representations from foundation models is preserved during synthetic image generation.

arXiv:2608. 14539v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Determining the biological sex of the individuals who created Upper Paleolithic hand stencils remains a challenging problem due to the absence of ground truth, population differences between contemporary and prehistoric groups, and the uncertainty introduced by image degradation.
