New MedVIGIL benchmark tests medical AI's trust under broken visual evidence

Researchers have introduced MedVIGIL, a new evaluation suite designed to test the trustworthiness of medical vision-language models (VLMs). The suite focuses on how well these models recognize when visual evidence is compromised or misleading, a critical factor for clinical use. MedVIGIL includes 300 cases, meticulously curated and annotated by board-certified radiologists, to assess model performance under various forms of broken visual evidence. The benchmark revealed a significant gap between human performance and current models, with the strongest audited model, Claude Opus 4.7, scoring considerably lower than the independent radiologist baseline.

    MedVIGIL: Evaluating Trustworthy Medical VLMs Under Broken Visual Evidence

    arXiv:2605.07919v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Medical vision--language models (VLMs) are usually evaluated on intact image--question pairs, but trustworthy clinical use requires a stronger property: a model must recognise when the evidential basis for an answer has failed. …
