Medical image segmentation is often framed as a search for stronger architectures, but this can obscure a more fundamental question: what does the dataset require from the model? In medical imaging, this requirement is shaped by foreground occupancy, morphology, boundary ambiguity, topology sensitivity, annotation quality, acquisition variation, and operating point.
arXiv:2606. 30657v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Surgical outcomes depend not only on patient factors and postoperative care but are also strongly influenced by the quality of the operation itself.

arXiv:2607. 16631v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Translating unstructured clinical prescriptions into patient-specific foot orthoses (FOs) is hindered by a semantic-physical misalignment: high-level clinical intent is not mapped deterministically onto the 3D geometric parameters of the orthosis, and existing design workflows remain dependent on manual expertise with no instantaneous biomechanical validation.
