New CORAL framework enhances medical report generation with interpretable reasoning

Researchers have developed CORAL, a novel multimodal framework designed to improve the interpretability and accuracy of medical report generation from imaging data. This framework integrates spatial grounding and concept-level supervision, enabling a more clinically aligned reasoning process. CORAL utilizes a prompt-driven segmentation model for lesion localization and a Concept Bottleneck module for predicting clinical attributes, which are then fed into a multimodal large language model (MLLM) for structured report generation and diagnosis. Experiments on the BUS-CoT and IU X-ray datasets showed CORAL outperformed existing MLLMs in diagnostic accuracy and report quality. AI
