Objectives: To characterize residual false positives in prostate MRI detection, and to evaluate a lightweight post-hoc refinement head for case-level specificity. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study used PI-CAI (5-fold cross-validation) and Prostate158 (n=158; external).

arXiv:2606. 07381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Background and Purpose: Automated detection of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) requires large volumes of voxelwise lesion-delineated MRI data, which are difficult to acquire.

Breast DCE-MRI AI is increasingly being explored for breast-level classification of no-lesion, benign, and malignant findings, beyond conventional lesion-centered diagnosis. Within this broader diagnostic scope, however, patient-specific background variability remains a major source of imaging confounding across classification tasks.
arXiv:2606. 30951v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Micro-ultrasound ($\mu$US) is a new, emerging, and promising imaging modality for prostate cancer (PCa) detection, but accurate identification of suspicious tissue remains highly dependent on clinical experience, leading to substantial inter-observer variability.

arXiv:2607. 19137v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 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.

In clinical oncology studies, metastatic cancer is commonly evaluated using "Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors" (RECIST), in which the diameter of up to five lesions is measured and followed over the course of treatment. However, RECIST shows limited correlation with overall survival.
arXiv:2607. 12075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Background: Deep learning models can classify thyroid nodules on ultrasound, but reliable clinical decision support also requires calibrated probabilities, uncertainty estimation, and selective referral, particularly under dataset shift.

Background/Objectives: Dermoscopic skin lesion classifiers often lose accuracy under domain shift across imaging devices, illumination, and capture artifacts. We study how data augmentation improves the robustness of a binary malignant-versus-non-malignant classifier, with emphasis on out-of-domain (OOD) generalization.
