Researchers have developed MAC-XA, a novel method for generating reports on coronary stenosis from X-ray angiography by fusing multi-view data. The approach addresses the challenge of cross-view alignment, which is crucial for accurate lesion localization and stenosis grading but cannot be directly supervised in real-world data. MAC-XA utilizes a synthetic angiography generation strategy to create patch-level correspondence supervision, enabling an anatomy-correspondence module to learn explicit cross-view alignment before evidence aggregation. Experiments demonstrate that this alignment-constrained fusion improves reporting consistency and accuracy compared to existing single-view and conventional multi-view methods, with successful zero-shot transfer to real angiograms.
