FADA: Accessible fetal ultrasound interpretation and annotation with a selectively distilled unified vision-language model

arXiv:2606. 11106v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A global shortage of trained sonographers limits prenatal ultrasound screening in low- and middle-income countries, where over half of pregnant women receive no skilled sonography.

Cross-Modal Ultrasound-MRI Learning for Fetal Brain Ventricular Volumetry and Abnormality Screening

arXiv:2608. 14763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Assessment of ventriculomegaly (VM) on fetal brain ultrasound relies primarily on measuring lateral ventricular atrial width on standard planes, which is operator-dependent and may not fully reflect the overall ventricular enlargement.

Towards Modality-Agnostic Medical Image Anomaly Detection: A Training-Free Manifold Refinement Approach

arXiv:2604. 19191v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deploying AI-based anomaly detection across diverse clinical imaging settings remains challenging because most existing methods rely on modality-specific architectures, anatomical priors, or extensive retraining, limiting their use as general-purpose screening tools.

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.

FetSelect: Task-Specific Architectures and Self-Supervised Learning for Automated Fetal Ultrasound Frame Selection

Automated frame selection for fetal biometry remains under addressed, with most prior work targeting generic quality assessment or downstream measurement pipelines that assume suitable frames are available. We introduce FetSelect, a task-specific framework that pairs a frozen vision foundation backbone with a hybrid multi-head design: a Task-Gated classification head and a Detection-derived quality head combined via learned fusion.

Anatomy-Anchored Self-Supervision: Distilling Vision Foundation Models for Invariant Ultrasound Representation

arXiv:2605. 25402v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-supervised pre-training paradigm has gained increasing prominence for learning transferable representations in medical imaging, yet existing methods for ultrasound (US) images operate at the image or frame level, overlooking the anatomical context for clinical-aligned representation learning.
