The Diagnosis a Reporter Leaves Unspoken: Surfacing Frozen Tumor Features for Brain-Tumor MRI Reporting

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 2, 2026 · UTC

A capable brain-MRI report generator can still be, in effect, diagnostically silent. When a multi-chain chain-of-thought (CoT) reporter built on a medical Mistral-7B backbone is evaluated on held-out cohorts, it names most meningiomas and almost all metastases "glioma" (diagnosis recall 0.44/0.07). Yet the answer is not absent from the model: a supervised linear probe applied to its frozen segmentation features recovers the three tumour cohorts at 0.82 macro-F$_1$ (5-fold cross-validation; chance $\approx$0.33). We introduce NeuroFusion, an assistive reporter that surfaces this latent signal r
