摘要
Recent advances in medical large multimodal models (LMMs) have brought promising progress to clinical decision support, yet hallucination, the generation of confident but clinically unverifiable outputs, poses a critical threat to the reliability demanded in high-stakes medical settings. Existing hallucination detection methods, predominantly designed for unimodal settings, fail to capture the visual-linguistic dynamics inherent to medical imaging. We formulate the problem of hallucination detection in LMMs as disproportionate distribution of attention weights across the modalities during answer token generation. We quantify modality-specific attention concentration across layers and heads using the Gini coefficient and demonstrate statistically significant redistribution of attention mass between visual and textual tokens in hallucinated responses. We leverage these features to train a logistic regression-based classifier and evaluate it on two medical LMMs across three medical imaging modalities, demonstrating that our method achieves competitive or superior performance against contemporary hallucination detection baselines.
