LMOD+: A Comprehensive Multimodal Dataset and Benchmark for Developing and Evaluating Multimodal Large Language Models in Ophthalmology
Zhenyue Qin, Yang Liu, Yu Yin +13
Vision-threatening eye diseases pose a major global health burden, with timely diagnosis limited by workforce shortages and restricted access to specialized care. While multimodal…
Is an Ultra Large Natural Image-Based Foundation Model Superior to a Retina-Specific Model for Detecting Ocular and Systemic Diseases?
Qingshan Hou, Yukun Zhou, Jocelyn Hui Lin Goh +19
The advent of foundation models (FMs) is transforming medical domain. In ophthalmology, RETFound, a retina-specific FM pre-trained sequentially on 1.4 million natural images and 1.…
Generalist versus Specialist Vision Foundation Models for Ocular Disease and Oculomics
Yukun Zhou, Paul Nderitu, Jocelyn Hui Lin Goh +20
Medical foundation models, pre-trained with large-scale clinical data, demonstrate strong performance in diverse clinically relevant applications. RETFound, trained on nearly one m…
Benchmarking Next-Generation Reasoning-Focused Large Language Models in Ophthalmology: A Head-to-Head Evaluation on 5,888 Items
Minjie Zou, Sahana Srinivasan, Thaddaeus Wai Soon Lo +13
Recent advances in reasoning-focused large language models (LLMs) mark a shift from general LLMs toward models designed for complex decision-making, a crucial aspect in medicine. H…
