We present a lesion-aware image captioning framework for ulcerative colitis (UC), integrating ResNet embeddings, Grad-CAM heatmaps, and CBAM-enhanced attention with a T5 decoder. Clinical metadata—including MES scores, bleeding, and vascular patterns—are incorporated as natural language prompts to guide caption generation. The resulting system produces structured, interpretable, and diagnostically aligned descriptions. Compared to previous approaches, our method improves both captioning quality and MES classification accuracy, offering a clinically meaningful tool for endoscopic reporting.

摘要

We present a lesion-aware image captioning framework for ulcerative colitis (UC), integrating ResNet embeddings, Grad-CAM heatmaps, and CBAM-enhanced attention with a T5 decoder. Clinical metadata—including MES scores, bleeding, and vascular patterns—are incorporated as natural language prompts to guide caption generation. The resulting system produces structured, interpretable, and diagnostically aligned descriptions. Compared to previous approaches, our method improves both captioning quality and MES classification accuracy, offering a clinically meaningful tool for endoscopic reporting.
