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.

BiLoG-Net: A Bi-Context Location-Guided Network for Breast Mass Segmentation and Malignancy Classification in Mammography

arXiv:2607. 10188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed malignancy among women worldwide, yet accurate detection and characterization of breast masses in mammography remain challenging due to subtle intensity variations, heterogeneous tissue densities, and indistinct lesion boundaries that complicate radiological interpretation.

Deep Learning Segmentation of Diffusion-Weighted MRI Acute Ischaemic Stroke: A Pragmatic Evaluation Across Three Datasets

The study evaluated a pragmatic deep‑learning approach for segmenting acute ischemic stroke lesions on diffusion‑weighted MRI. Using a self‑configured nnU‑Net trained on 1,744 cases and tested on 436, the baseline model achieved a median Dice similarity coefficient of 0.84, outperforming the DeepISLES ensemble, especially for smaller infarcts. The approach required minimal preprocessing and fast inference, suggesting it could streamline clinical stroke imaging workflows.

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.
