TLNM: Externally Validated Tooth Detection, Numbering and Segmentation from Smartphone Photographs Using Mask R-CNN

The paper presents TLNM, a Mask R‑CNN based system that detects, numbers, and segments teeth in smartphone photographs. It incorporates a masked gray‑world white‑balancing step and an anatomically constrained detection layer to handle patient‑generated variability. Evaluated on internal and external datasets, the model achieved high AP50, PQ, and F1 scores, demonstrating robust performance across diverse populations and imaging conditions.

ProtoPointNet: Prototype-Based Interpretable Classification of 3D Dental Point Clouds with Verifiable Spatial Activations

Prototype-based networks provide inherently interpretable classification by linking predictions to learned exemplars, but their use in 3D point clouds and clinical surface-pair reasoning remains limited. We introduce ProtoPointNet, a prototype-based model for dental occlusion classification from registered upper--lower intraoral arch pairs.

Pixel Wised Lesion Prediction on COVID-19 CT Imagery: A Comparative Analysis of Automated Image Segmentation Architectures

The study evaluates four deep‑learning segmentation architectures—Unet, PSPNet, Linknet, and FPN—paired with six pre‑trained encoders to predict COVID‑19 lesions in CT images. Experiments on three COVID‑19 CT datasets show high accuracy, achieving a maximum binary F1‑score of 98% and multi‑class F1‑scores of 75% and 77%. The work aims to provide a standardized performance benchmark for medical image segmentation and a reference for other imaging scenarios.

HTC-SGA Former: A Hybrid Transformer-CNN Network with Self-Guided Attention and a New Boundary-Weighted Adaptive Loss for Coronary DSA Vessel Segmentation

Accurate coronary Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) vessel segmentation is essential for computer-aided diagnosis and treatment planning of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, thin low-contrast vessels, background interference, and severe vessel-background class imbalance make reliable segmentation of weak distal branches and vessel boundaries challenging.

Color Fundus Photography Analysis: Co-evolution of Data, Preprocessing, and Modeling toward Multimodal AI

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.

FU-Mamba: A Frequency-Enhanced Dynamic Scanning Framework for Oralscan Image Segmentation

FU-Mamba is a new framework for oralscan image segmentation that combines dynamic scanning with frequency domain enhancement. It introduces a Dynamic Mamba Block that learns adaptive sampling offsets for content‑aware scanning, preserving spatial coherence, and a frequency enhancement block that balances spectral components using wavelet‑guided decomposition and spectrum pooling. Experiments show a 1.1% improvement in mean intersection over union on a dental segmentation dataset.
