arXiv:2606. 15457v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 3D FLAIR MRI is widely recommended as one of the standard MRI sequences for brain imaging in multiple sclerosis (MS), but publicly available MS datasets remain relatively small and vary across scanners, acquisition protocols, and lesion patterns.

VGG16-MCA UNet is a hybrid neural network that combines an ImageNet‑pretrained VGG16 encoder with a decoder enhanced by a Multi‑Channel Attention module, trained using Focal Tversky loss to address class imbalance. The model was evaluated as a 2‑D, FLAIR‑only whole‑tumor segmenter on BraTS 2020 and LGG datasets, achieving a pixel‑level Dice of 95.10 % on BraTS and 88.32 % on LGG in a 5‑fold cross‑validation setting. Inference time is 66.32 ms per 256×256 slice on a single RTX 2060, only slightly slower than a VGG16‑UNet without attention.
whyItMatters":"The study provides a reproducible 2‑D FLAIR baseline for whole‑tumor segmentation, demonstrating high Dice scores and detailed reporting of training and evaluation protocols."

The paper introduces a lightweight Vision Transformer‑based U‑Net for brain tumor segmentation from MRI, combining U‑Net’s hierarchical feature extraction with a compact ViT bottleneck to capture both local and global context. With only 2.6 million trainable parameters, the model achieves a mean Intersection over Union of 0.8100 and a Dice score of 0.8446 on the TCGA LGG dataset, surpassing the baseline U‑Net by 3.75% and 3.15% respectively. Extensive quantitative and qualitative analyses, including confusion matrices, precision‑recall curves, and tumor size dependency studies, demonstrate the method’s effectiveness and robustness.

BrainIAC is a unified framework for 3D brain lesion segmentation that handles heterogeneous MRI modalities and adapts online during interactive segmentation. It combines a multi‑modal backbone trained with zero‑filling and random modality dropping, 3D interactive prompts that default to fully automatic predictions, and a two‑stage online adaptation guided by pseudo‑labels and a Click‑Centered Gaussian loss. Experiments on seven MRI datasets show that the components work synergistically, outperforming existing methods and generalizing to unseen modalities and pathologies.

Inferring contrast enhancement from one pre-contrast breast MRI slice is underdetermined: post-contrast appearance contains physiological information that is not uniquely encoded in baseline anatomy. Optimizing only paired pixel fidelity can suppress uncertain lesion enhancement, whereas adversarial or stochastic generative objectives can favor realistic post-contrast appearance without guaranteeing patient-specific lesion fidelity.
