The study introduces the RSM framework, which includes the ARNAI artifact removal network, to enhance automated measurement of spinopelvic parameters on postoperative lumbar spine radiographs containing implants. Adding ARNAI to the Transformer-based FCBFormer model raised the mean Dice similarity coefficient from 0.814 to 0.870 and significantly reduced the mean L4–L5 segmental Cobb angle error from about 15.8° to 4.7°, a 70% improvement. The framework also improved intraclass correlation coefficients for key parameters, surpassing 0.70 for pelvic tilt, lumbar lordosis, and sacral slope.

The study introduces ART‑Net, an anatomy‑aware residual attention network designed to refine four‑fold accelerated SENSE brain MRI. In a prospective paired study of 80 participants, ART‑Net achieved the highest peak signal‑to‑noise ratio and structural similarity index among evaluated methods, and it preserved anatomical fidelity with superior Dice coefficients for medial temporal and whole‑brain structures. Radiologist assessments also indicated improved gradient fidelity, regional contrast, and overall structural quality.

The paper introduces DAMM‑Net++, a 2.5D neural network for thoracic organ‑at‑risk and target volume segmentation that tackles inter‑slice surface incoherence, small low‑contrast target failure, and lack of per‑case reliability signals. Its core is an anatomy‑change‑aware bidirectional selective state‑space memory that propagates context across axial slices, complemented by a boundary‑aware decoder and an uncertainty head for calibrated per‑voxel confidence. Evaluations on 2,146 patients, an external cohort, and a reader study show high Dice scores (0.955), low HD95 (3.78 mm), significant time savings (75‑80 %) for clinicians, and improved junior‑reader performance, with the system fully integrated into a clinical workflow.

The study introduces a voxel-spacing-aware radiomic framework that incorporates physical geometry into texture computation without resampling, modifying PyRadiomics to preserve native image signals. Four extraction configurations—native non-resampled (NR), isotropic resampling (RS), voxel-spacing-aware (VS), and fake-isotropic preprocessing (FK)—were compared across 685 CT pulmonary nodules and 209 MRI breast cases, evaluating 196 radiomic descriptors. Results show that VS closely matches NR (median ICC(A,1) ≈0.998) while RS and FK exhibit lower agreement, indicating that spacing metadata alone can significantly influence radiomic features.
The paper introduces SWIFT, a Swin V2‑based model pretrained on 10,444 3D CT volumes and fine‑tuned for rectal cancer segmentation on T2‑weighted MRI. Four configurations—full fine‑tuning (SWIFT), decoder compression (SWIFTe), low‑rank adaptation (SWIFTe‑LoRA), and a LoRA‑decoder ensemble (SWIFTe‑LDE4)—were evaluated on 247 cases, showing that SWIFTe reduces parameters by 70.1% while improving tumor detection and radiomic agreement. The study also demonstrates a trade‑off between detection and boundary agreement, and highlights that SWIFTe‑LDE4 achieves the lowest calibration errors after temperature scaling.
