PelviNeXt: A Modality-Agnostic Hybrid Network for Pelvic Imaging in Women's Health

arXiv:2608. 20144v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Women's health remains substantially under-resourced in medical imaging research, with pelvic pathologies such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and pelvic fracture both suffering from a scarcity of public, well-annotated benchmark data despite their clinical importance.

Integrating Local Detail and Global Context: A Dual-Input Multi-Task Learning Framework for Bone Tumor Diagnosis

The paper introduces a dual‑input, multi‑task learning framework that jointly segments and classifies bone tumors by applying bidirectional cross‑modal attention between a lesion crop and the full radiograph. Using a YOLO‑based detector and a dual‑stream DenseNet121 architecture, the model fuses fine‑grained lesion detail with global anatomical context through a novel cross‑modal attention fusion strategy and hierarchical multi‑scale feature fusion. On the multi‑institutional Bone Tumor X‑ray Radiograph Dataset, the approach outperforms single‑input baselines, achieving a Dice coefficient of 0.896 and a macro‑averaged F1‑score of 0.928, with an AUC of 0.999 for malignant osteosarcoma.

Enabling Real-Time Point-of-Care Ultrasound Segmentation: A GPU-Free Deployment in Resource-Limited Settings

arXiv:2606. 15176v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ultrasound imaging is the most widely adopted medical modality globally due to its low cost and portability, yet artificial intelligence (AI) deployment remains constrained by reliance on GPU-accelerated models, creating a structural paradox where the cost of "intelligence" exceeds that of the imaging device itself.

BiLoG-Net: A Bi-Context Location-Guided Network for Breast Mass Segmentation and Malignancy Classification in Mammography

arXiv:2607. 10188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed malignancy among women worldwide, yet accurate detection and characterization of breast masses in mammography remain challenging due to subtle intensity variations, heterogeneous tissue densities, and indistinct lesion boundaries that complicate radiological interpretation.

Less Contouring, More Accuracy: Lesion-Guided ROI Deep Learning for Ovarian Ultrasound Classification

The study evaluates lesion‑guided region‑of‑interest (ROI) deep learning for ovarian ultrasound classification, comparing it to global image, lesion contour, and contour‑based radiomics approaches across two public datasets. Using four deep‑learning architectures, the lesion‑guided ROI strategy achieved the highest accuracy (93.10% on MMOTU and 97.56% on OUD) with an AUC of 0.99, while requiring less annotation effort than contour‑based methods.

Evidence-Based Text-Conditioned 3D CT Synthesis for Ovarian Cancer

arXiv:2606. 28980v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ovarian cancer is frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage, making preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) central to staging and surgical planning; yet the scarcity of annotated imaging data, compounded by privacy regulations, limits the development of generalizable computational models in this domain.

OncoVision: Integrating Mammography and Clinical Data through Attention-Driven Multimodal AI for Enhanced Breast Cancer Diagnosis

OncoVision is a privileged‑information training framework that learns from mammography images and clinical data during training but performs inference using only mammographic images. It employs an attention‑based encoder‑decoder to jointly segment masses, calcifications, axillary findings, and breast tissue, and predicts ten structured clinical features such as BI‑RADS. Two late‑fusion strategies (Independent and Dependent) integrate imaging, radiomic, and clinical information to improve diagnostic precision, and a retrospective multi‑reader study showed higher diagnostic confidence, reduced reading time, and segmentation accuracy comparable to or better than radiologists.
