Qwen3.5-9B model adapted for multimodal medical image parsing

Researchers have developed a method for adapting a single vision-language model, Qwen3.5-9B, for multimodal medical image parsing tasks. This approach utilizes task-specific Low-Rank Adapters (LoRA) to tailor the model's performance across various medical imaging modalities and task families, including classification, multi-label classification, counting, detection, regression, and report generation. The system demonstrated strong results on the FLARE 2026 Task 3, achieving high accuracy in classification and detection, and low error rates in regression and counting tasks, with efficient processing times. AI
