ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Visual Question Answering (VQA) enables targeted and context-dependent analysis of medical images, such as chest X-rays (CXRs). However, existing VQA datasets for CXRs are typically constrained by simplistic and brief answer formats, lacking localization annotations (e.g., bounding boxes) and structured tags (e.g., region or radiological finding/disease tags). To address these limitations, we introduce MIMIC-Ext-CXR-QBA (abbr. CXR-QBA), a large-scale CXR VQA dataset derived from MIMIC-CXR, comprising 42 million QA-pairs with multi-granular, multi-part answers, detailed bounding boxes, and structured tags.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for radiology report generation are typically trained to mimic the narrative flow of human experts. However, we identify a potential limitation in this conventional paradigm. We hypothesize that optimizing for narrative coherence encourages models to rely on linguistic priors and inter-sentence correlations, which can weaken their grounding in direct visual evidence and lead to factual inaccuracies. To investigate this, we design a controlled experiment demonstrating that as textual context increases, a model's reliance on the input image systematically decays. We propose LLaVA-TA (Topic-guided and Anatomy-aware), a new fine-tuning framework that directly addresses this challenge by re-engineering the generation process.
