Article Synopsis
  • - Over 85 million CT scans are done annually in the US, with a significant portion focused on the abdomen, highlighting a need for efficient interpretation methods due to a shortage of radiologists.
  • - To address this, researchers introduced Merlin, a 3D Vision Language Model (VLM) that uses both electronic health records and radiology reports for training without the need for manual annotations, utilizing a vast clinical dataset of millions of images and codes.
  • - Merlin was evaluated on various tasks, including chronic disease prediction and report generation, showing better performance than current methods, demonstrating its potential to support radiologists in their work.

Gliomas are the most dominant and lethal type of brain tumors. Growth prediction is significant to quantify tumor aggressiveness, improve therapy planning, and estimate patients' survival time. This is commonly addressed in literature using mathematical models guided by multi-time point scans of multi/single-modal data for the same subject.

Brain tumors are one of the major common causes of cancer-related death, worldwide. Growth prediction of these tumors, particularly gliomas which are the most dominant type, can be quite useful to improve treatment planning, quantify tumor aggressiveness, and estimate patients' survival time towards precision medicine. Studying tumor growth prediction basically requires multiple time points of single or multimodal medical images of the same patient.
