MKG-CARE: Case-Aware Reasoning with Multimodal Knowledge Graphs for Explainable Medical Image Diagnosis
Medical image diagnosis has achieved significant progress with deep learning, yet existing methods often rely on isolated visual evidence and lack the ability to effectively leverage similar cases and external knowledge. In clinical practice, diagnosis is typically supported by similar historical cases and their associated symptoms. To explicitly model this evidence-based diagnostic process, we propose MKG-CARE, a framework that performs case-aware reasoning using multimodal knowledge graphs for explainable medical image diagnosis. Specifically, we construct a case-aware multimodal knowledge graph as a structured diagnostic memory, where diseases, images, and symptoms are hierarchically o...
