# PathFLIP

Model weights for the paper *PathFLIP: Fine-Grained Language-Image Pretraining for Versatile Pathology Image Understanding*.

## Overview

PathFLIP is a pathology vision-language model that aligns fine-grained morphological sub-captions with their corresponding regions in Whole Slide Images. Unlike prior pathology VLMs that pair an entire slide with a single report-level anchor, PathFLIP introduces region-statement correspondence through a region Q-Former and a region-level contrastive objective with caption-swapped negatives, learning region-level alignment without any manual spatial annotation. This fine-grained supervision enables strong slide-level classification and retrieval performance, and gives rise to an emergent visual grounding capability.
