arXiv:2506. 00633v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating semantically controllable 3D CT volumes from radiology reports requires more than a rich text encoder, it requires vision-language alignment grounded in volumetric space.

arXiv:2608. 04515v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Slice-based MLLMs leverage mature 2D encoders by representing 3D volumes as sequences of 2D slices.

arXiv:2510. 15042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the 3D medical image domain, vision-language pre-training is used to create vision-language encoders (VLEs) that can support radiologists by retrieving patients with similar abnormalities, predicting likelihoods of abnormality, or, with downstream adaptation, generating radiological reports.

arXiv:2607. 20993v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large vision-language models are becoming increasingly dominant in 3D medical image interpretation, but we rarely know which internal units encode clinical findings or where that information lives in the representation.

arXiv:2603. 11625v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While specialized Medical Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable success in interpreting 2D and 3D medical modalities, their deployment for 3D volumetric data remains constrained by significant computational inefficiencies.
