The Path to Self-Evolving Clinical Systems: Scaling Medical Agents from Assistance to Autonomy

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

This survey reframes medical agents from the perspective of clinical deployment. It introduces a three-level autonomy taxonomy, organizes the field around framework, capability, and environment scaling, and highlights clinical self-evolution as a key frontier for trustworthy medical AI systems in real-world clinical practice.

MedSynapse-V: Bridging Visual Perception and Clinical Intuition via Latent Memory Evolution

Tue, 12 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

MedSynapse-V bridges visual perception and clinical intuition via latent diagnostic memory evolution for medical vision-language models.

Anatomy-Anchored Self-Supervision: Distilling Vision Foundation Models for Invariant Ultrasound Representation

Mon, 11 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

AnaUS discovers unlabeled anatomical structures with an LP-SAM driven latent prompt engine and combines anatomy disentanglement alignment with core-region prediction for robust ultrasound representation learning.

Subspace-Guided Semantic and Topological Invariant Registration for Annotation-Free Ultrasound Plane Quality Control

Sun, 10 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

STRIQ is a registration-driven annotation-free ultrasound plane quality control framework. It uses a latent registration aligner and orthogonal knowledge subspaces to improve correlation with clinical quality scoring.
