Researchers have introduced LoMeVQA, a new benchmark designed to evaluate the temporal reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) in medical contexts. The benchmark comprises over 206,000 longitudinal visual question answering pairs across five distinct tasks, aiming to address the current gap in modeling temporal information for disease progression and treatment response assessment. Initial evaluations indicate that existing MLLMs struggle with these tasks, highlighting the need for specialized models like MedLong-8B, which demonstrates state-of-the-art performance on the LoMeVQA benchmark.
