Scale-Aware 3D Deep Learning for Robust Brain Metastasis Detection in Multimodal MRI

The paper presents a scale‑aware 3D deep‑learning framework for detecting brain metastases in multimodal MRI. It trains separate 3D U‑Nets on two spatial fields of view (96³ and 64³ voxels) and fuses their probability maps via weighted late fusion. On a 97‑patient cohort, this cross‑FOV fusion improved lesion‑level precision and F1 while markedly reducing false positives compared to individual models, demonstrating that complementary spatial context enhances detection performance.

Mr3D-VL: A generalist vision language foundation model for Multiparametric 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging

arXiv:2608. 12689v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is a cornerstone for brain tumor diagnosis and treatment, yet current AI models face critical limitations: their lack of natural language interaction and interpretability impedes spatial information integration and cross-modal reasoning required clinically.

S$^3$F-Net: A Multi-Modal Approach to Medical Image Classification via Spatial-Spectral Summarizer Fusion Network

The paper introduces S$^3$F-Net, a dual‑branch network that fuses spatial and spectral representations for medical image classification. It combines a deep spatial CNN with a shallow spectral encoder, SpectraNet, which uses a learnable SpectralFilter layer to process the full Fourier spectrum efficiently. Evaluated on four medical imaging datasets, S$^3$F-Net consistently outperforms spatial‑only baselines, achieving state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on BRISC2025 and surpassing deeper models on the Chest X‑Ray Pneumonia dataset.

Lesion-DDPM: Lesion-Enhanced 3D Diffusion for MS MRI Synthesis

arXiv:2606. 15457v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 3D FLAIR MRI is widely recommended as one of the standard MRI sequences for brain imaging in multiple sclerosis (MS), but publicly available MS datasets remain relatively small and vary across scanners, acquisition protocols, and lesion patterns.
