The paper introduces LoG, a localization‑infused vision‑language fusion framework for text‑guided medical image segmentation. LoG jointly performs multi‑scale target localization to explicitly capture target‑oriented semantics and employs three levels of localization‑infused fusion—feature, attention, and loss—to integrate spatial information into segmentation. Experiments on three benchmark datasets across three imaging modalities show that LoG consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods.

Multimodal fusion learning (MFL) has shown great potential in the medical domain, where we are faced with disparate data modalities such as imaging, clinical records, and omics. However, existing MFL strategies face several major challenges.
The paper introduces MSM‑Seg, a dual‑memory segmentation framework for 3D multi‑modal brain tumor segmentation. It combines a modality‑and‑slice memory attention module to capture cross‑modal and spatial‑slice dependencies, a multi‑scale category‑agnostic prompt encoder for whole‑tumor guidance, and a modality‑adaptive fusion decoder to integrate complementary decoding information. Experiments on various MRI datasets show that MSM‑Seg surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods for metastases and glioma tumor segmentation.

arXiv:2607. 09481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-guided medical image segmentation leverages clinical semantics to improve lesion delineation, yet many existing models bind cross-modal fusion, supervision, and decoder design into a task-specific architecture.

BiCLIP is a bidirectional multimodal framework that enhances medical image segmentation by allowing visual features to iteratively refine textual representations, improving semantic alignment. It incorporates an augmentation consistency objective to stabilize learning against perturbed inputs. Experiments on QaTa-COV19 and MosMedData+ show that BiCLIP outperforms state‑of‑the‑art image‑only and multimodal baselines, achieving strong performance even with only 1% labeled data and resisting common clinical artifacts such as motion blur and low‑dose CT noise.
