The study introduces a voxel-spacing-aware radiomic framework that incorporates physical geometry into texture computation without resampling, modifying PyRadiomics to preserve native image signals. Four extraction configurations—native non-resampled (NR), isotropic resampling (RS), voxel-spacing-aware (VS), and fake-isotropic preprocessing (FK)—were compared across 685 CT pulmonary nodules and 209 MRI breast cases, evaluating 196 radiomic descriptors. Results show that VS closely matches NR (median ICC(A,1) ≈0.998) while RS and FK exhibit lower agreement, indicating that spacing metadata alone can significantly influence radiomic features.
Objective: Radiomic texture features are usually computed in voxel-index neighborhoods, implicitly assuming isotropic spatial relationships. In anisotropic images, this can confound voxel geometry with interpolation-induced signal changes.

The paper introduces SWIFT, a Swin V2‑based model pretrained on 10,444 3D CT volumes and fine‑tuned for rectal cancer segmentation on T2‑weighted MRI. Four configurations—full fine‑tuning (SWIFT), decoder compression (SWIFTe), low‑rank adaptation (SWIFTe‑LoRA), and a LoRA‑decoder ensemble (SWIFTe‑LDE4)—were evaluated on 247 cases, showing that SWIFTe reduces parameters by 70.1% while improving tumor detection and radiomic agreement. The study also demonstrates a trade‑off between detection and boundary agreement, and highlights that SWIFTe‑LDE4 achieves the lowest calibration errors after temperature scaling.
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:2606. 09953v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Head computed tomography (CT) typically uses sub-millimeter in-plane resolution but 2-5 mm through-plane spacing, creating substantial anisotropy that degrades multiplanar reconstructions, volumetric measurements such as hematoma volume estimation, and downstream algorithms that assume near-isotropic voxels.
