New benchmark reveals VLMs struggle with raw medical data standardization

A new research paper introduces MDS-Bench, a benchmark designed to evaluate the capability of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) in standardizing raw, heterogeneous medical data. This addresses a critical gap where existing benchmarks assume data is already prepared, which is not the case in real clinical practice. The benchmark involves tasks like identifying data formats, converting medical images, extracting text, and organizing them into structured pairs. Experiments revealed that even advanced models like Gemini 3 Flash struggle, achieving only a 48.6% success rate, highlighting data standardization as a significant bottleneck for medical AI diagnosis.
