FiberGeoText: A Vision-Language Model for Population- Level Organization of Superficial White Matter

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

FiberGeoText (FGT) is a vision‑language model that clusters short‑range superficial white matter streamlines from ultra‑high‑resolution diffusion MRI into population‑level groups. It jointly encodes each streamline’s 3‑D trajectory, cortical anatomical context (via text from multiple parcellation schemes), and shape, using a pretrained large language model to unify heterogeneous anatomical descriptions. Evaluations on 0.76 mm diffusion data show that FGT outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods in cortical parcel coherence, shape consistency, cluster‑size consistency, and cross‑subject correspondence, and it generalizes well to unseen subjects, recovering 96.7 % of learned clusters.

Cross-Modality Structural Guidance in 3D Latent Diffusion for Robust FLAIR Super-Resolution

The paper introduces MR‑DiffuSR, a 3‑D latent diffusion framework that uses high‑resolution T1w structural priors to guide super‑resolution of thick‑slice FLAIR MRI scans. By applying cross‑modality structural swin attention and a mixed‑scale degradation strategy, the method avoids hallucinations and remains robust across varying slice thicknesses. On ADNI datasets, MR‑DiffuSR outperforms CNN and 2‑D diffusion baselines, achieving high PSNR, SSIM, and low LPIPS, and maintains strong white‑matter hyperintensity segmentation performance even at 7 mm equivalent slice thickness.

Mr3D-VL: A generalist vision language foundation model for Multiparametric 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging

arXiv:2608. 12689v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is a cornerstone for brain tumor diagnosis and treatment, yet current AI models face critical limitations: their lack of natural language interaction and interpretability impedes spatial information integration and cross-modal reasoning required clinically.
