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.

IRIS: An Intelligent Vision-Language System for Ocular Surface Diseases via Topic Tree and Scene-Driven VQA Generation

arXiv:2607. 04344v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) demonstrate remarkable generic capabilities, their clinical reasoning in specialized domains like ocular surface diseases (OSDs) is severely hindered by a paucity of high-fidelity, multimodal instruction-tuning data.

Color Fundus Photography Analysis: Co-evolution of Data, Preprocessing, and Modeling toward Multimodal AI

Color Fundus Photography (CFP) is a primary non-invasive imaging modality for large-scale screening of ophthalmic and systemic diseases. Existing surveys mainly summarize task-specific algorithms, datasets, or preprocessing techniques independently, lacking a unified perspective on their co-evolution with modern artificial intelligence.
