Medical image segmentation models can achieve strong benchmark performance while remaining sensitive to scanner, protocol, and institutional variation. These context shifts alter image appearance without changing the underlying lesion, allowing models to exploit nuisance cues that Dice and HD95 fail to expose.
arXiv:2607. 22727v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical image segmentation models often report high benchmark accuracy under ideal imaging conditions, yet their failures under clinical degradation can be quiet: sensor noise, patient motion, low- resolution acquisition, and contrast variability may all alter model behavior without producing an obvious warning.
arXiv:2512. 14937v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors in adults and are among the most lethal.
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:2607. 22749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tracking residual tumor after surgery is essential for catching recurrence early, but automating post-operative glioma segmentation remains a difficult task.
arXiv:2607. 28858v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic brain tumor segmentation from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a fundamental task in computer-assisted diagnosis, treatment planning, and disease monitoring.

Region-based loss functions, such as the Dice loss, have established themselves as the de facto standard for highly class- and region-imbalanced segmentation tasks. However, models trained using region-based loss functions are notoriously miscalibrated and typically yield over-confident predictions.

arXiv:2608. 06613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-supervised 3D medical foundation models are increasingly used as general-purpose feature extractors, yet their sensitivity to MRI artifacts remains poorly understood.
