contents Vision-Language Models (VLMs) facilitate medical visual question answering (MedVQA) by jointly interpreting images and text. However, existing models typically depend on large architectures and closed-set answers, which limits their efficiency and potential clinical applicability. To overcome these shortcomings, we introduce RoiMAM, an efficient VLM. It integrates a training-free ROI Generation Module with Semantic Selective Suppression to focus on lesion-relevant regions, alongside a Text Prompt Enhancer module that provides modality-specific context without introducing training parameters. Compared to the widely used MedVInT-TD model, our design achieves efficient and accurate diagnosis at less than 20\% of the model size, while improving accuracy by approximately 2% on SLAKE and 4.6% on PMC-VQA.
