New framework combats medical MLLM hallucinations with evidence injection

Researchers have developed a novel, training-free framework to enhance the trustworthiness of medical multimodal large language models (MLLMs). This system, called Synergistic Perception-Reasoning Governance, addresses hallucinations by injecting verifiable anatomical evidence during inference. It recalibrates visual perception through ROI-guided activation modulation and anchors textual reasoning by mapping anatomical coordinates to semantic tokens. Evaluations on multiple datasets using various MLLMs demonstrated significant improvements in accuracy and a substantial reduction in hallucinations. AI

IMPACT This framework could improve the reliability of medical AI tools by reducing hallucinations in diagnostic and reporting tasks.

    Synergistic Perception-Reasoning Governance: Grounding Medical MLLMs with Verifiable Anatomical Evidence

    arXiv:2607.00060v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) show strong promise for clinical VQA and radiology report generation, yet inference-time hallucinations still undermine trustworthy use: models can produce fluent conclusions that conflict wi…
