摘要
Clinical video diagnosis, in which physicians assess dynamic tissue responses across procedural stages, is critical for detecting diseases such as cervical and colorectal cancers. Recent spatiotemporal models map visual progressions directly to diagnostic outputs, yet overlook two hallmarks of expert reasoning: clinically grounded diagnostic principles and hypothesis-driven counterfactual thinking. This gap leads existing methods to conflate causal pathological cues with non-pathological variations, thereby limiting their reliability in data-scarce settings. Here we show that explicitly modeling counterfactual tissue evolution, guided by clinical rules that encode expert diagnostic principles, substantially improves diagnostic robustness-emulating the hypothesis-driven reasoning clinicians employ in practice. We introduce MEDVCR, comprising a Counterfactual Generator (CG) that synthesizes hypothetical tissue transitions via diffusion modeling, a Counterfactual Representation Learning (CRL) module that enforces temporal consistency, pathological separability, and counterfactual alignment, and a Dual Diagnostic Prediction (DDP) strategy that combines video-level context with frame-level counterfactual contrast. On two representative tasks, MEDVCR achieves 93.0% Recall@1 on colposcopy (+10.2%) and 94.8% Average Precision (AP) on colonoscopy (+2.6%), outperforming all state-of-the-art (SOTA) baselines. We anticipate that this counterfactual reasoning paradigm will open new avenues for vision-based clinical diagnostic tasks toward more transparent and interpretable decision support.
