The paper introduces DAMM‑Net++, a 2.5D neural network for thoracic organ‑at‑risk and target volume segmentation that tackles inter‑slice surface incoherence, small low‑contrast target failure, and lack of per‑case reliability signals. Its core is an anatomy‑change‑aware bidirectional selective state‑space memory that propagates context across axial slices, complemented by a boundary‑aware decoder and an uncertainty head for calibrated per‑voxel confidence. Evaluations on 2,146 patients, an external cohort, and a reader study show high Dice scores (0.955), low HD95 (3.78 mm), significant time savings (75‑80 %) for clinicians, and improved junior‑reader performance, with the system fully integrated into a clinical workflow.
The paper introduces Observation‑Anchored Selective Assimilation (OASA) for forecasting tumor‑state proxies in post‑treatment glioma patients using serial MRI observations. OASA anchors the patient‑specific state with an intermediate observation and selectively updates it via a tiered rule and voxel‑wise soft gate, outperforming baseline methods in Dice score at certain thresholds. The approach is validated on 120 patient triplets and the code is publicly released.
