MambaX-Net: Dual-Input Mamba-Enhanced Cross-Attention Network for Longitudinal Prostate MRI Segmentation

arXiv:2510. 17529v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Active Surveillance (AS) is a treatment option for managing low and intermediate-risk prostate cancer (PCa), aiming to avoid overtreatment while monitoring disease progression through serial MRI and clinical follow-up.

Improving Clinical Target Volume Segmentation Accuracy using Anatomical Priors and Active Learning for the AGITG TOPGEAR Clinical Trial

The study explores how adding anatomical priors and active learning can improve the accuracy of deep learning models for segmenting the Clinical Target Volume (CTV) in gastric cancer radiotherapy. Using 100 retrospective CT scans, an nnU‑Net model trained on 10 expert‑contoured cases was enhanced with voxel‑wise anatomical prior maps and iterative active learning over four rounds. The combined approach raised the mean Dice Similarity Coefficient from 0.84 to 0.87, demonstrating that both techniques individually and together improve segmentation performance and generalizability.

SAMRI-3D: Adapting SAM2 for 3D MRI Segmentation with Global Volume Tokens

Foundation models such as Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM2) have transformed natural-image and video segmentation, and recent work has begun adapting them to medical imaging. These adaptations, however, are largely general-purpose models that treat MRI as one modality among many; large-scale, MRI-specific modelling and benchmarking remain limited, even though MRI's low soft-tissue contrast leaves many boundaries effectively invisible on individual slices.

An Accessible Solution for Deformable Image Registration Compared with Learning-Based Approaches

Deformable image registration (DIR) is a core problem in medical image analysis; but, unlike labeling decision problems such as classification and segmentation, registration is a problem class that involves stringent physical constraints. Although deep learning methods have made faster registration possible, the resulting models are often difficult to interpret compared to hand-crafted methods with explicit objectives and interpretable physical meaning.
