Physically Aware Radiomics Without Interpolation: Disentangling Voxel Geometry and Signal Modification in CT and MRI

Objective: Radiomic texture features are usually computed in voxel-index neighborhoods, implicitly assuming isotropic spatial relationships. In anisotropic images, this can confound voxel geometry with interpolation-induced signal changes.

Physically Aware Radiomics Without Interpolation: Disentangling Voxel Geometry and Signal Modification in CT and MRI

The study introduces a voxel-spacing-aware radiomic framework that incorporates physical geometry into texture computation without resampling, modifying PyRadiomics to preserve native image signals. Four extraction configurations—native non-resampled (NR), isotropic resampling (RS), voxel-spacing-aware (VS), and fake-isotropic preprocessing (FK)—were compared across 685 CT pulmonary nodules and 209 MRI breast cases, evaluating 196 radiomic descriptors. Results show that VS closely matches NR (median ICC(A,1) ≈0.998) while RS and FK exhibit lower agreement, indicating that spacing metadata alone can significantly influence radiomic features.

Sparse-View Lung Nodule Volumetry from Digitally Reconstructed Radiographs via AReT: Anatomy-Regularized TensoRF

arXiv:2606. 02639v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We identify and resolve a previously unreported failure mode in TensoRF when applied to X-ray attenuation fields: the default density shift of -10, originally introduced for RGB scene reconstruction, suppresses density gradients and prevents sparse-view medical reconstruction regardless of learning rate or regularization strategy.

Deep Slice Interpolation for Reducing Through-Plane Anisotropy and Noise in Head CT

arXiv:2606. 09953v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Head computed tomography (CT) typically uses sub-millimeter in-plane resolution but 2-5 mm through-plane spacing, creating substantial anisotropy that degrades multiplanar reconstructions, volumetric measurements such as hematoma volume estimation, and downstream algorithms that assume near-isotropic voxels.

Parameter-Efficient pretrained-CT-to-MRI Transfer for Rectal Cancer Segmentation: Performance-Calibration Trade-offs

The paper introduces SWIFT, a Swin V2‑based model pretrained on 10,444 3D CT volumes and fine‑tuned for rectal cancer segmentation on T2‑weighted MRI. Four configurations—full fine‑tuning (SWIFT), decoder compression (SWIFTe), low‑rank adaptation (SWIFTe‑LoRA), and a LoRA‑decoder ensemble (SWIFTe‑LDE4)—were evaluated on 247 cases, showing that SWIFTe reduces parameters by 70.1% while improving tumor detection and radiomic agreement. The study also demonstrates a trade‑off between detection and boundary agreement, and highlights that SWIFTe‑LDE4 achieves the lowest calibration errors after temperature scaling.

When Misalignment Becomes Supervision: Structured Label Noise in Supervised Synthetic CT Generation

The paper examines how residual misalignments from registration procedures introduce structured label noise in supervised synthetic CT (sCT) generation. It shows that voxel‑wise metrics are heavily influenced by the consistency between training and evaluation registrations, and that training with anatomically consistent registrations reduces variability and improves robustness. Introducing a perceptual loss based on a pretrained Segment Anything encoder yields sharper, more anatomically coherent sCT and highlights the need for anatomy‑oriented evaluation.

Foundation Models vs. Radiomics for Lung Computed Tomography: A Benchmark of Feature Extractors, Classification Heads, and Segmentation Choices

arXiv:2607. 01001v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Radiomics is the established approach for CT-based lung cancer phenotyping, yet comparisons with foundation models rarely isolate contributions of feature extractor, classification head, and segmentation choice, or test cross-cohort robustness.
