PBSBench: A Multi-Level Vision-Language Framework and Benchmark for Hematopathology Whole Slide Image Interpretation

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2604.17570v1 Announce Type: new Peripheral Blood Smear (PBS) is a critical microscopic examination in hematopathology that yields whole-slide imaging (WSI). Unlike solid tissue pathology, PBS interpretation focuses on individual cell morphologies rather than tissue architecture, making it distinct in both visual characteristics and diagnostic reasoning. However, current multimodal large language models (MLLMs) for pathology are primarily developed on solid-tissue WSIs and struggle to generalize to
