arXiv:2607. 01001v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Radiomics is the established approach for CT-based lung cancer phenotyping, yet comparisons with foundation models rarely isolate contributions of feature extractor, classification head, and segmentation choice, or test cross-cohort robustness.

arXiv:2608. 15004v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, and Computed Tomography (CT) is a primary imaging tool for screening and followup assessment.

arXiv:2606. 06950v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Three-dimensional models are widely assumed preferable for volumetric medical imaging, yet their practical value depends on whether performance gains justify added computational cost and complexity.

arXiv:2604. 15231v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-language models (VLM) have markedly advanced AI-driven interpretation and reporting of complex medical imaging, such as computed tomography (CT).

arXiv:2606. 16991v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multiphasic contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is widely used for abdominal lesion characterization, yet it carries inherent risks of contrast-induced nephropathy, escalates acquisition burden, and heavily contributes to radiologist workload.

arXiv:2607. 02998v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Controllable generative models of 3D medical images can synthesize volumes with specified clinical attributes, but this demands samples that are simultaneously high-fidelity, natively 3D, and faithful to the requested conditioning.

arXiv:2606. 00491v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning-based CT segmentation systems often achieve high accuracy on clean benchmark images, but their performance may degrade under heterogeneous clinical imaging conditions such as noise, resolution loss, contrast variation, intensity shift, and artifacts.

arXiv:2606. 15176v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ultrasound imaging is the most widely adopted medical modality globally due to its low cost and portability, yet artificial intelligence (AI) deployment remains constrained by reliance on GPU-accelerated models, creating a structural paradox where the cost of "intelligence" exceeds that of the imaging device itself.
