Lingshu: MLLMs for Unified Multimodal Medical Understanding and Reasoning

Welcome to the Lingshu project - A Generalist Foundation Model for Unified Multimodal Medical Understanding and Reasoning.

Highlights:

• BIG NEWS: Lingshu-I-8B is released with state-of-the-art performance on medical VQA tasks. It undergoes the same training pipeline on top of InternVL3.
• Lingshu supports more than 12 medical imaging modalities, including X-Ray, CT Scan, MRI, Microscopy, Ultrasound, Histopathology, Dermoscopy, Fundus, OCT, Digital Photography, Endoscopy, and PET.
• Lingshu models achieve SOTA on most medical multimodal/textual QA and report generation tasks for 7B and 32 model sizes.
• Lingshu-32B outperforms GPT-4.1 and Claude Sonnet 4 in most multimodal QA and report generation tasks.
