Tri-Modal LLM Fusion Improves Stroke Prognosis Prediction
A novel tri-modal fusion model designed for predicting outcomes in ischemic stroke has been introduced, which combines medical imaging, organized clinical information, and free-text data. This strategy employs a Large Language Model (LLM) to autonomously create semi-structured diagnostic narratives from brain MRIs, tackling the challenge of limited expert annotations while providing a regularized semantic boost. By facilitating deep bidirectional interactions among the different data types, this method addresses the shortcomings of current dual-modal fusion approaches. The objective of the model is to enhance the precision of stroke outcome predictions through the effective integration of these three data sources. This research is available on arXiv (2605.14710) and marks progress in multi-modal medical diagnostics.
