Improving Cross-Site Whole-Heart Segmentation

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper presents a modality‑routed 3D cardiac segmentation pipeline that combines TotalSegmentator‑initialized nnU‑Netv2 models with site‑characterized, label‑preserving appearance augmentation. By analyzing measurable image properties across sites, the authors design a bias‑field plus Bezier augmentation strategy that smooths spatial intensity perturbations and remaps intensities nonlinearly, followed by class‑wise largest‑connected‑component cleanup. On held‑out validation splits, this approach raises CT mean Dice from 0.8350 to 0.9135 and MRI mean Dice from 0.7695 to 0.7830 while reducing HD95, demonstrating improved cross‑site robustness in limited‑data whole‑heart segmentation.

CMRVision: A Foundation Model for Cardiac MR Image Analysis

CMRVision is a cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) foundation model trained with DINOv3-style self‑supervised learning on 36 million multi‑center, multi‑sequence CMR images. It outperforms prior natural‑image, medical‑image, supervised, and CMR baselines on multi‑task segmentation (cine, LGE, mapping) and cine view classification, achieving Dice scores of 0.940–0.967 for LV and 0.855–0.905 for myocardium, and a zero‑shot Dice of 0.692 on unseen LGE long‑axis views. The model demonstrates robust cross‑view generalization and highest average accuracy (0.906) for cine view classification.

Transformer-Guided Graph Attention for Direct Cardiac Mesh Reconstruction: A Structural Digital Twin Framework

arXiv:2606. 13188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Building patient-specific cardiac models sits at the heart of precision cardiology, yet getting those models into clinical use keeps running into the same wall: mesh generation is slow, messy, and frustrating.
