| Challenge: | a semantically interpretable system for automated ICD coding of clinical text documents is presented . coding errors may result in unpaid claims and loss of revenue, authors argue . |
| Approach: | They propose a semantically interpretable system for automated ICD coding of clinical text documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system improves on the MIMIC-III dataset by 2.7% relative to the previous state of the art. |

| Challenge: | Radiology reports are detailed text descriptions of the content of medical scans. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to align, concatenate and fuse the current and prior visual information into a joint longitudinal representation which can be provided to a multimodal report generation model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art results while enabling anatomy-wise controllable report generation. |
