Automated assessment of degenerative pathology in the lumbar spine on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires access to large-scale datasets of expert-annotated radiological gradings. In contrast, segmentation pseudo-labels can be generated by automated tools at negligible radiologist cost.

Fiber tractography's ability to reconstruct the brain's structural pathways, has made it a crucial component of modern neuroimaging, enabling detailed, non-invasive mapping of structural connectivity and supporting a wide range of neurological research and clinical applications. However, despite its importance, tractography remains a challenging task due to the inherent complexity of white matter structure and its susceptibility to false positives, which can lead to the misrepresentation of critical pathways.
