Tracing 3D Anatomy in 2D Strokes: A Multi-Stage Projection Driven Approach to Cervical Spine Fracture Identification

arXiv:2601. 15235v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Cervical spine fractures require rapid and accurate diagnosis, yet automatic CT interpretation remains challenging as subtle injuries must be assessed across large 3D volumes.

DALE-CT: Depth-Aware 2D Slice Encoders Learn an Anatomical World Model of Chest CT

DALE-CT introduces depth‑aware 2D slice encoders that learn an anatomical world model of chest CT scans without 3D or positional supervision. By sampling self‑supervised views across a physical $z$‑axis slab, the encoder captures how anatomy changes between neighboring slices, enabling it to recover slice ordering and distinguish slices by anatomy alone. The model, trained on a large 287k‑scan corpus, achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on CT‑RATE and is released with full code and evaluation tools.
