• Abstract: Understanding 3D medical image volumes is a critical task in the medical domain. However, existing 3D convolution and transformer-based methods have limited semantic understanding of an image volume and also need a large set of volumes for training. Recent advances in multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) provide a new and promising way to understand images with the help of text descriptions. However, most current MLLMs are designed for 2D natural images. To enhance the 3D medical image understanding with 2D MLLMs, we propose a novel pre-training framework called Med3DInsight, which marries existing 3D image encoders with 2D MLLMs and bridges them via a designed Plane-Slice-Aware Transformer (PSAT) module. Extensive experiments demonstrate our SOTA performance on two downstream segmentation and classification tasks, including three public datasets with CT and MRI modalities and comparison to more than ten baselines. Med3DInsight can be easily integrated into any current 3D medical image understanding network and improves its performance by a good margin.

  We propose Med-2E3, a novel MLLM for 3D medical image analysis that integrates 3D and 2D encoders. To aggregate 2D features more effectively, we design a Text-Guided Inter-Slice (TG-IS) scoring module, which scores the attention of each 2D slice based on slice contents and task instructions. Experiments on a large-scale, open-source 3D medical multimodal benchmark demonstrate that Med-2E3 exhibits task-specific attention distribution and significantly outperforms current state-of-the-art models.

  Previous research has primarily focused on 2D medical images, leaving 3D images under-explored, despite their richer spatial information. We present a large-scale 3D multi-modal medical dataset, M3D-Data, comprising 120K image-text pairs and 662K instruction-response pairs. We also introduce a new 3D multi-modal medical benchmark, M3D-Bench, which facilitates automatic evaluation across eight tasks.

  We propose GEM-3D, a novel generative approach to the synthesis of 3D medical images. Our method begins with a 2D slice, noted as the informed slice to serve the patient prior, and propagates the generation process using a 3D segmentation mask. By decomposing the 3D medical images into masks and patient prior information, GEM-3D offers a flexible yet effective solution for generating versatile 3D images.
