Clinical diagnosis of the eye is performed over multifarious data modalities including scalar clinical labels, vectorized biomarkers, two-dimensional fundus images, and three-dimensional Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scans. While the clinical labels, fundus images and OCT scans are instrumental measurements, the vectorized biomarkers are interpreted attributes from the other measurements. Clinical practitioners use all these data modalities for diagnosing and treating eye diseases like Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) or Diabetic Macular Edema (DME). Enabling usage of machine learning algorithms within the ophthalmic medical domain requires research into the relationships and interactions between these relevant data modalities. Existing datasets are limited in that: (i) they view the problem as disease prediction without assessing biomarkers, and (ii) they do not consider the explicit relationship among all four data modalities over the treatment period. In this paper, we introduce the O

Recent accelerations in multi-modal applications have been made possible with the plethora of image and text data available online. However, the scarcity of similar data in the medical field, specifically in histopathology, has halted similar progress. To enable similar representation learning for histopathology, we turn to YouTube, an untapped resource of videos, offering 1,087 hours of valuable educational histopathology videos from expert clinicians. From YouTube, we curate Quilt: a large-scale vision-language dataset consisting of 768,826 image and text pairs. Quilt was automatically curated using a mixture of models, including large language models), handcrafted algorithms, human knowledge databases, and automatic speech recognition. In comparison, the most comprehensive datasets curated for histopathology amass only around 200K samples. We combine Quilt with datasets, from other sources, including Twitter, research papers, and the internet in general, to create an even larger dat
