ViPSAM: Visual Prompting Medical Image Segmentation Using Segment Anything Model

arXiv:2607. 14328v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In proton therapy planning, respiratory-gated non-contrast CT (NCCT) is commonly used for lesion segmentation; however, accurate delineation remains challenging due to low lesion-to-background contrast.

Synergistic Modality-and-Slice Memory Framework for Cross-Modal 3D Brain Tumor Segmentation

The paper introduces MSM‑Seg, a dual‑memory segmentation framework for 3D multi‑modal brain tumor segmentation. It combines a modality‑and‑slice memory attention module to capture cross‑modal and spatial‑slice dependencies, a multi‑scale category‑agnostic prompt encoder for whole‑tumor guidance, and a modality‑adaptive fusion decoder to integrate complementary decoding information. Experiments on various MRI datasets show that MSM‑Seg surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods for metastases and glioma tumor segmentation.

Feature Reconfiguration With Visual Prior for Medical Lesion Segmentation

The paper introduces FreNet, a feature reconfiguration framework that incorporates visual priors for medical lesion segmentation. FreNet performs pixel‑level reconfiguration before encoding using an Implicit Prior Neural Network (IPNN) that leverages SAM, and feature‑level reconfiguration during encoding via a Dual‑domain Feature Reconfiguration (DFR) module, which includes a Frequency Decoupling Module (FDM) and a Spatial Localization Module (SLM). Experiments on nine benchmarks across three imaging modalities show that FreNet outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods, achieving a 5.0% Dice improvement over the best baseline on the ETIS dataset and a 7.2% improvement over SAM.

InstEditSeg: Instruction-Driven Image Editing for Polyp and Skin Lesion Segmentation

InstEditSeg is a generative framework that treats medical segmentation as an instruction-driven image editing task. Instead of producing binary masks, it renders a color-coded overlay on the original image guided by textual instructions, leveraging latent diffusion models to align with natural image distributions and reduce domain gaps. The method incorporates a DINOv3 visual encoder and a multi-scale feature pyramid fused into the diffusion U‑Net, and uses a dual‑branch classifier‑free guidance strategy to lower inference cost, achieving competitive accuracy on polyp and skin lesion datasets while improving cross‑domain generalization and multi‑lesion segmentation.

MIRAGE: Multi-scale Lesion-Informed Representation with Auxiliary Guidance for MRI Contrast Enhancement

Inferring contrast enhancement from one pre-contrast breast MRI slice is underdetermined: post-contrast appearance contains physiological information that is not uniquely encoded in baseline anatomy. Optimizing only paired pixel fidelity can suppress uncertain lesion enhancement, whereas adversarial or stochastic generative objectives can favor realistic post-contrast appearance without guaranteeing patient-specific lesion fidelity.
