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.
The paper introduces an unsupervised domain adaptation framework that aligns redundancy-reducing features to enable accurate 3D segmentation of cone-beam CT (CBCT) without target-domain annotations or inference-time adaptation. The method is architecture-agnostic, working with both CNN-based and ViT-based foundation models, and is evaluated on two liver segmentation benchmarks for interventional vascular procedures and radiation therapy. Results show that even large pretrained segmentation networks need explicit feature-space bridging to generalize across diagnostic CT and CBCT, and the proposed approach consistently outperforms existing pretrained foundation models and UDA strategies.

The paper explores large‑scale pretraining to enhance deep learning‑based geometric distortion correction for diffusion‑weighted imaging (DWI). By framing the task as image reconstruction, the authors compare a non‑pretrained baseline with self‑supervised and generative pretrained models, finding that the cWDM model yields the best quantitative and qualitative results. When applied to low‑resource, high‑throughput settings in a low‑ and middle‑income country, the pretrained models faced transferability issues, but aligning images to a common standard space improved predictions, indicating that harmonized preprocessing can aid cross‑domain deployment.

InstEditSeg is a generative framework that treats medical segmentation as an instruction-driven image editing task. Instead of producing binary masks, it renders a color-coded overlay on the original image guided by textual instructions, leveraging latent diffusion models to align with natural image distributions and reduce domain gaps. The method incorporates a DINOv3 visual encoder and a multi-scale feature pyramid fused into the diffusion U‑Net, and uses a dual‑branch classifier‑free guidance strategy to lower inference cost, achieving competitive accuracy on polyp and skin lesion datasets while improving cross‑domain generalization and multi‑lesion segmentation.
