The paper proposes a Federated Learning framework that integrates an optimized YOLOv8 network for detecting kidney stones in CT images while preserving patient privacy. By enabling multiple medical institutions to collaboratively train a shared model without exchanging patient data, the approach complies with GDPR and HIPAA regulations. Experiments on a distributed CT dataset show a 0.733 mAP@50 and demonstrate fast, real‑time inference suitable for clinical deployment.

arXiv:2607. 19532v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning has emerged as a potential solution to privacy concerns associated with using sensitive health data for training predictive models, particularly in personalised cancer care.
Color Fundus Photography (CFP) is a primary non-invasive imaging modality for large-scale screening of ophthalmic and systemic diseases. Existing surveys mainly summarize task-specific algorithms, datasets, or preprocessing techniques independently, lacking a unified perspective on their co-evolution with modern artificial intelligence.
arXiv:2606. 04338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Privacy-sensitive and distributed characteristics of multi-center medical data bring severe obstacles to centralized modeling for accurate early prediction of sepsis.
The FedSurg Challenge is the first international effort to evaluate Federated Learning (FL) for surgical vision, using a multi‑center dataset of laparoscopic appendectomies. Three participant models were tested for generalization to an unseen clinical center and for center‑specific adaptation, compared against centralized, Swarm Learning, and parameter‑efficient fine‑tuning baselines. The study found that temporal modeling most consistently improves generalization, but overall performance remains low (26.31% F1‑score on the unseen center), highlighting the need for structured personalized FL and revealing limitations of current approaches.
arXiv:2608. 16268v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical foundation models improve generalization when training AI models with limited labeled data, but remain confined to a single specialty, such as pathology or radiology, and to either sparse or dense outputs, such as classification or segmentation.
arXiv:2508. 10017v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) presents a groundbreaking approach for collaborative health research, allowing model training on decentralized data while safeguarding patient privacy.
Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training across distributed healthcare institutions without centralising sensitive patient data. However, real-world healthcare federations are often characterised not only by non-IID data, but also by heterogeneous clinical objectives and partially overlapping feature spaces.
