HF-CMN: a medical report generation model for heart failure.

Heart failure represents the ultimate stage in the progression of diverse cardiac ailments. Throughout the management of heart failure, physicians require observation of medical imagery to formulate therapeutic regimens for patients. Automated report generation technology serves as a tool aiding physicians in patient management. However, previous studies failed to generate targeted reports for specific diseases. To produce high-quality medical reports with greater relevance across diverse conditions, we introduce an automatic report generation model HF-CMN, tailored to heart failure. Firstly, the generated report includes comprehensive information pertaining to heart failure gleaned from chest radiographs. Additionally, we construct a storage query matrix grouping based on a multi-label type, enhancing the accuracy of our model in aligning images with text. Experimental results demonstrate that our method can generate reports strongly correlated with heart failure and outperforms most other advanced methods on benchmark datasets MIMIC-CXR and IU X-Ray. Further analysis confirms that our method achieves superior alignment between images and texts, resulting in higher-quality reports.
