Summary
The paper "MedObvious" reveals a critical gap in Vision Language Models (VLMs) used for medical tasks: despite generating fluent diagnostic text, they often fail basic pre-diagnostic sanity checks. These essential clinical checks verify input validity, correct anatomy, and integrity before interpretation. Current VLM benchmarks largely overlook this crucial initial step, potentially leading to unsafe visual understanding and misinterpretations in medical applications.
