The paper introduces BiCC, a bidirectional connected-component loss that pairs annotation- and prediction-derived partitions to score predicted components on their own scale. By deriving instances from predictions, BiCC directly penalizes false-positive components regardless of size, allowing a balance parameter to control the lesion-wise precision–recall trade-off. Across five datasets, BiCC outperforms existing instance-aware losses such as CC-DiceCE and blob loss in lesion-wise F1, and improves over DiceCE on multiple datasets.

arXiv:2510. 15042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the 3D medical image domain, vision-language pre-training is used to create vision-language encoders (VLEs) that can support radiologists by retrieving patients with similar abnormalities, predicting likelihoods of abnormality, or, with downstream adaptation, generating radiological reports.

The study investigates how few expert-annotated cases are needed to fine‑tune MedSAM3 for abdominal organ segmentation using Low‑Rank Adaptation (LoRA). With only 10 annotated CT or MRI cases, the LoRA‑adapted models achieve performance comparable to specialist systems that require orders of magnitude more data, including reliable gallbladder segmentation and near‑state‑of‑the‑art results for liver, kidneys, and spleen. The approach also generalizes to cardiac segmentation on the Whole Heart dataset, and training takes only 3–5 hours per organ on a single GPU, roughly twice as fast as nnU-Net.
