UniReg is a conditional unified model for medical image registration that adapts deformation field estimation based on anatomical priors, registration type constraints, and instance-specific features. It combines the precision of task‑specific learning with the generalization of traditional optimization, enabling effective alignment across diverse CT and MR scenarios within a single framework. Experiments show UniReg outperforms state‑of‑the‑art learning‑based methods in accuracy while providing strong cross‑scenario generalization and reducing training cost and model redundancy.

The paper introduces TopKSigLIP, a vision‑language model tailored for mammography that tackles two key challenges: high‑resolution imaging and homogeneous radiology reports. It replaces standard CLIP training with a TopK‑Patch module that selects sparse high‑resolution patches likely to contain lesions, and a Sup‑sigmoid loss that uses soft labels from structured data instead of contrastive loss. TopKSigLIP outperforms existing open‑source mammography and general medical VLMs on zero‑shot tasks such as density assessment, BI‑RADS classification, finding subtyping, and cancer prediction, while also providing better lesion localization than Grad‑CAM.

Breast DCE-MRI AI is increasingly being explored for breast-level classification of no-lesion, benign, and malignant findings, beyond conventional lesion-centered diagnosis. Within this broader diagnostic scope, however, patient-specific background variability remains a major source of imaging confounding across classification tasks.
