arXiv:2605. 15720v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Medical referring image segmentation (MRIS) predicts lesion masks from medical images and natural-language referring expressions, but acquiring paired pixel-level annotations and referring texts is costly.
arXiv:2608. 13690v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical image segmentation is still largely treated as a vision-only problem, although clinical interpretation often relies on textual knowledge of anatomy, location, appearance, and surrounding context.
arXiv:2605. 23995v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-supervised learning (SSL) is increasingly used in medical image analysis to reduce dependence on costly expert annotations by learning transferable representations from unlabeled data.
arXiv:2605. 23995v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-supervised learning (SSL) has emerged as a promising paradigm for addressing the annotation bottleneck in medical imaging by learning representations from unlabeled data.
arXiv:2608. 05683v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cross-modal alignment of visual and textual representations is fundamental to multimodal medical image understanding, yet remains hindered by uncertainty in both modalities under real-world clinical conditions.
arXiv:2608. 07340v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Registration-based Few-shot medical image segmentation (RFMIS) aims to generate pseudo-labels for unlabeled images by warping a labeled image through registration.
arXiv:2608. 04472v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The development of foundation models (FMs) is crucial for advancing endoscopic image analysis.
arXiv:2607. 09481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-guided medical image segmentation leverages clinical semantics to improve lesion delineation, yet many existing models bind cross-modal fusion, supervision, and decoder design into a task-specific architecture.
arXiv:2605. 25402v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-supervised pre-training paradigm has gained increasing prominence for learning transferable representations in medical imaging, yet existing methods for ultrasound (US) images operate at the image or frame level, overlooking the anatomical context for clinical-aligned representation learning.
Multimodal based approaches often outperform single modality approaches in downstream tasks as the different modalities provide complementary information, yet acquiring paired clinical data remains a significant challenge in real world scenarios. While cross-modal knowledge distillation addresses this, existing methods often struggle with large modality gaps and the propagation of noise from uncertain source-domain predictions.
arXiv:2607. 16705v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semi-supervised learning (SSL) is an effective solution for medical image segmentation with limited annotations.
arXiv:2607. 14995v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Contrastive Learning (CL) has shown significant performance in aligning representations across various data modalities and improving downstream tasks, especially in healthcare.
arXiv:2606. 06379v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical vision-language models (VLMs) have shown increasing potential for clinical image interpretation, including lesion detection and report generation.
