Pre-Deployment Robustness Stress Testing for CT Segmentation Systems Using Clinically Motivated Multi-Corruption Augmentation

arXiv:2606. 00491v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning-based CT segmentation systems often achieve high accuracy on clean benchmark images, but their performance may degrade under heterogeneous clinical imaging conditions such as noise, resolution loss, contrast variation, intensity shift, and artifacts.

Spectral Adapters for Segment Anything Model-based Segmentation of Colorectal Liver Metastases in Computed Tomography

The paper introduces two lightweight spectral adapters—Directional Spectral Adapter (DiSECT) and Spectral Instance-Guided Adapter (SiGA)—to adapt the Segment Anything Model (SAM) for accurate segmentation of colorectal liver metastases in contrast‑enhanced CT scans. SiGA achieves the highest single‑point Dice score of 0.77 and performs comparably to a 3D nnU‑Net baseline under no‑prompt inference, while DiSECT requires only 0.14 million trainable parameters. The study evaluates the adapters on 446 CT volumes across various prompting regimes, demonstrating that spectral adapters can efficiently adapt SAM with limited trainable parameters while maintaining strong segmentation accuracy.

Subtraction-Based Tumor Segmentation and Lesion-Centered pCR Prediction for the MAMA-MIA Challenge

Team FME submitted a method for the MAMA-MIA Challenge that tackles primary tumor segmentation and pathological complete response (pCR) prediction using dynamic contrast‑enhanced breast MRI. For segmentation, they employed a five‑fold residual‑encoder nnU‑Net ensemble trained on the first post‑contrast minus pre‑contrast image, augmented with mirroring test‑time augmentation and largest‑connected‑component filtering, achieving a Dice score of 0.713 and a normalized Hausdorff distance of 0.099. For pCR prediction, they ensembled 25 pretrained 3D video classifiers on lesion‑centred crops from the pre‑contrast and first two post‑contrast volumes, reaching a balanced accuracy of 0.541 and an equalized‑odds disparity of 0.212, and ranked second in both tasks.

Improving Cross-Site Whole-Heart Segmentation

The paper presents a modality‑routed 3D cardiac segmentation pipeline that combines TotalSegmentator‑initialized nnU‑Netv2 models with site‑characterized, label‑preserving appearance augmentation. By analyzing measurable image properties across sites, the authors design a bias‑field plus Bezier augmentation strategy that smooths spatial intensity perturbations and remaps intensities nonlinearly, followed by class‑wise largest‑connected‑component cleanup. On held‑out validation splits, this approach raises CT mean Dice from 0.8350 to 0.9135 and MRI mean Dice from 0.7695 to 0.7830 while reducing HD95, demonstrating improved cross‑site robustness in limited‑data whole‑heart segmentation.

Lesion-DDPM: Lesion-Enhanced 3D Diffusion for MS MRI Synthesis

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.
