Deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems have shown strong performance in breast cancer diagnosis, particularly for classification tasks in mammography. However, domain shifts across multi-site datasets remain a challenge, especially when models are applied to unseen domains.
arXiv:2608. 10271v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Breast density classification is a critical component of breast cancer risk assessment, yet AI models often struggle to generalize across clinical sites due to vendor-specific acquisition styles.
This study evaluates the classification accuracy of six modern deep‑learning architectures—VGG19, ResNet50, GoogleNet, ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, and Vision Transformers—on breast ultrasound images categorized by BI‑RADS. Using 2,945 training images and 936 validation images from 1,540 patients, the models were tested in full fine‑tuning, linear evaluation, and training‑from‑scratch settings. The best performance was achieved with full fine‑tuning, yielding 76.39 % accuracy and a 67.94 % F1 score.

arXiv:2511. 15968v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: External validation of breast ultrasound segmentation models remains limited because internal train--test splits do not capture domain shifts across imaging systems, acquisition protocols, and patient populations.
arXiv:2607. 10358v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models are increasingly used as image feature extractors for mammography, but their robustness under external domain shift remains unclear.

The paper introduces TopKSigLIP, a vision‑language model tailored for mammography that tackles two key challenges: high‑resolution imaging and homogeneous radiology reports. It replaces standard CLIP training with a TopK‑Patch module that selects sparse high‑resolution patches likely to contain lesions, and a Sup‑sigmoid loss that uses soft labels from structured data instead of contrastive loss. TopKSigLIP outperforms existing open‑source mammography and general medical VLMs on zero‑shot tasks such as density assessment, BI‑RADS classification, finding subtyping, and cancer prediction, while also providing better lesion localization than Grad‑CAM.
arXiv:2607. 18678v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Breast MRI is highly sensitive for detecting breast tumors, but exams contain many slices and require substantial reading time.
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.

AdaptiveCDM is a modular framework for source‑free few‑shot domain adaptation in cell detection, enabling a pretrained model to adapt to new imaging domains using only a handful of labeled target images and no source data. It combines Resolution‑Aware Augmentation (RAug) to balance scarce, class‑imbalanced samples while preserving cellular morphology, and Category‑Aware Representation Learning (CARL) to strengthen class‑consistent proposals for better localization and classification. Experiments on M5 and Raabin‑WBC datasets show that AdaptiveCDM achieves competitive or superior mAP scores compared to state‑of‑the‑art methods under their respective supervision settings.
