    - "arXiv:2609.26124v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the remarkable progress of LLM-based and knowledge graph-augmented Radiology Report Generation (RRG) methods, existing techniques."
    - "Conventional LLM-only models lack structured medical prior knowledge, resulting in frequent medical hallucinations and low diagnostic interpretability."
    - Limitations / unknowns:
    - Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.
    - Next-step validation checks:
    - Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
    - Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
