Tongyi Qianwen Boosts Photo-Based Health Tool: Highlights Areas, Understands Reasoning, Praised by Top Hospital Doctors
On May 27, 2026, Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen app announced a significant upgrade to its "Photo Health Inquiry" feature. The new version goes beyond traditional OCR text recognition, now offering medical image understanding and clinical reasoning capabilities.

Core Function Enhancements
Visual Selection: After users upload lab reports or photos of affected areas, the AI can directly highlight abnormal areas on the image (such as arrows or rash details), just as a doctor would.Integrated Reasoning: Instead of interpreting individual indicators in isolation, it now performs exclusion analysis based on age, gender, and multiple indicators. For example, it can recognize that elevated ALP in adolescents is physiological, not pathological.Transparent Process: The system autonomously accesses the medical knowledge base and demonstrates the full process of "recognition - annotation - reasoning," allowing users to understand the logic behind the conclusions.Professional Clinical Validation Three senior physicians from Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Friendship Hospital, and Peking University People's Hospital tested the feature. In multiple cases such as abdominal pain in a 13-year-old, suspected fatty liver, urticaria with elevated white blood cell count, and chin rash, Qianwen's analytical approach (including ruling out biliary issues and differentiating between physiological and pathological elevations) was recognized by experts. They believe it has diagnostic differentiation awareness and can effectively reduce user anxiety caused by misreading indicators. This upgrade marks a key step for AI health assistants moving from "mechanical value reading" to "auxiliary diagnosis," providing users with more reliable pre-consultation references.
