arXiv:2606.18860v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable pixel-level uncertainty quantification holds the potential to transform clinical workflows by enabling high-fidelity longitudinal monitoring and distinguishing true pathological changes from artifacts. Ideally, these models provide the stability required for critical treatment planning and surgical intervention. However, standard deep learning models often suffer from miscalibration, yielding overconfident predictions that mask underlying vulnerabilities at subtle pathological boundaries. To address this, we propose QUAM-SM, a post-hoc
Deep learning models are increasingly deployed in sensitive applications like medical imaging, making the quantification of prediction uncertainty a critical and current challenge.
Improving the reliability and interpretability of AI in medical diagnostics enhances trust, reduces risks, and paves the way for broader adoption in clinical workflows.
Clinical diagnostic processes may become more robust and safer with AI-powered tools that can explicitly flag potential areas of uncertainty or miscalibration.
