Researchers have developed a modular agent designed to improve spatial reasoning in medical imaging, specifically for verifying spatial relationships in CT scans. This agent breaks down the task into language parsing, anatomical localization using a YOLO-based detector, and deterministic geometric verification, rather than relying on end-to-end vision-language models. In evaluations on the MIRP spatial QA benchmark, this hybrid approach achieved 94.1% accuracy, significantly outperforming direct prompting of models like Qwen2-VL and offering interpretable reasoning stages.
