CMRVision is a cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) foundation model trained with DINOv3-style self‑supervised learning on 36 million multi‑center, multi‑sequence CMR images. It outperforms prior natural‑image, medical‑image, supervised, and CMR baselines on multi‑task segmentation (cine, LGE, mapping) and cine view classification, achieving Dice scores of 0.940–0.967 for LV and 0.855–0.905 for myocardium, and a zero‑shot Dice of 0.692 on unseen LGE long‑axis views. The model demonstrates robust cross‑view generalization and highest average accuracy (0.906) for cine view classification.

The paper presents the first systematic evaluation of out‑of‑distribution generalization for congenital heart disease (CHD) segmentation, using the ImageCHD cohort as a held‑out target. It compares several segmentation architectures under different training regimes, showing that in‑distribution performance is a poor predictor of cross‑cohort robustness: nnU‑Net drops from 0.77 to 0.51 Dice, while SwinUNETR maintains higher performance at 0.67 Dice. Limited target‑domain adaptation with only 11 labeled ImageCHD cases boosts all SwinUNETR variants above 0.76 Dice, highlighting the importance of explicit cross‑dataset testing.

InstEditSeg is a generative framework that treats medical segmentation as an instruction-driven image editing task. Instead of producing binary masks, it renders a color-coded overlay on the original image guided by textual instructions, leveraging latent diffusion models to align with natural image distributions and reduce domain gaps. The method incorporates a DINOv3 visual encoder and a multi-scale feature pyramid fused into the diffusion U‑Net, and uses a dual‑branch classifier‑free guidance strategy to lower inference cost, achieving competitive accuracy on polyp and skin lesion datasets while improving cross‑domain generalization and multi‑lesion segmentation.
