提升医学影像理解可靠性，从底层视觉感知入手。

Medical multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly expected to perform complex image understanding tasks, yet their reliability is often compromised by frequent errors in visual interpretation. To systematically trace these failures, we traverse the hierarchy from high-level clinical tasks down to fundamental visual perception. We therefore introduce Perception-Bench, a large-scale benchmark comprising 1.13 million samples that assesses medical MLLMs across six dimensions: attribute judgment, spatial grounding, spatial understanding, disease prediction, anomaly detection, and report generation, spanning both 2D and 3D radiology images. Our analysis on Perception-Bench reveals that existing MLLMs lack the ability to capture even the most basic lesion attributes, such as location, size, and density. This inability to ground clinical outputs in primary visual evidence reveals that the models' diagnostic unreliability is rooted in a critical but overlooked bottleneck in low-level visual perception. Motivated by this, we propose RadSight, a perception-driven MLLM built upon a dual 2D/3D encoder architecture that preserves native imaging spatial structures. RadSight formulates medical image understanding as a four-stage progressive process: visual-language alignment, fine-grained visual perception, clinical diagnosis, and diagnostic interpretation. The model is trained on an 8.37 million perception-oriented corpus using progressive curriculum learning. On Perception-Bench, RadSight consistently outperforms existing MLLMs across all six evaluation dimensions, with particularly strong gains in spatial grounding and clinical diagnosis. It also achieves consistent improvements on public 2D and 3D medical benchmarks, further demonstrating that robust low-level visual perception is a critical foundation for reliable clinical understanding. Code and model will be publicly available.
