AtlasPatch is a scalable, high‑throughput whole‑slide image preprocessing method that uses a foundation‑model‑based tissue detector operating at thumbnail resolution. By updating only 0.076% of the SAM2 model weights and leveraging a curated dataset of 30,000 thumbnail‑mask pairs, it generates accurate tissue masks and directly produces patch coordinates at the desired magnification, eliminating repeated patch‑level inference. The approach achieves 0.986 precision, is up to 16× faster than existing deep‑learning methods, and maintains downstream multiple‑instance learning performance across six slide‑level classification tasks.

MagViT is an interpretable multi‑magnification transformer that classifies breast histopathology images by extracting representations from four BreakHis magnifications (40X, 100X, 200X, 400X) and fusing them with a learnable, scale‑gated mechanism that can mask missing scales. The model selects the most accurate architectural branch at the patient level using five‑fold cross‑validation, achieving high performance on BreakHis (mean image accuracy 0.9191, patient accuracy 0.9643, macro‑F1 0.9042) and demonstrating preliminary cross‑dataset generalization on BUSI and IDC. Grad‑CAM visualizations confirm that the network focuses on diagnostically relevant regions across magnifications.

The paper introduces TopKSigLIP, a vision‑language model tailored for mammography that tackles two key challenges: high‑resolution imaging and homogeneous radiology reports. It replaces standard CLIP training with a TopK‑Patch module that selects sparse high‑resolution patches likely to contain lesions, and a Sup‑sigmoid loss that uses soft labels from structured data instead of contrastive loss. TopKSigLIP outperforms existing open‑source mammography and general medical VLMs on zero‑shot tasks such as density assessment, BI‑RADS classification, finding subtyping, and cancer prediction, while also providing better lesion localization than Grad‑CAM.

arXiv:2602. 21987v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-dose CT images are essential for reducing radiation exposure in cancer screening, pediatric imaging, and longitudinal monitoring protocols, but their quality is often degraded by noise from low-dose acquisition, patient motion, or scanner limitations, affecting both clinical interpretation and downstream analysis.

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.
