# COLIPRI: Comprehensive Language-Image Pre-training for 3D Medical Image Understanding
COLIPRI (Comprehensive Language-Image Pre-training) is a family of vision-language encoders designed for 3D medical image understanding.
The model was introduced in the paper: [Comprehensive language-image pre-training for 3D medical image understanding](https://huggingface.co/papers/2510.15042).
## Description
COLIPRI aligns 3D medical images with paired text using a multi-objective pre-training strategy. It combines vision-language alignment with a report generation objective and vision-only pre-training, allowing the model to benefit from both image-only and paired image-text 3D datasets.
The COLIPRI encoders achieve state-of-the-art performance across various tasks:
- **Radiological Report Generation**: Generating text descriptions from 3D scans.
- **Semantic Segmentation**: Downstream adaptation for anatomical and pathological segmentation.
- **Zero-shot Classification**: Predicting labels without task-specific fine-tuning.
- **Classification Probing**: Providing strong feature representations for medical diagnostics.
