Multimodal Routing and Region Refinement for Language-Guided Medical Image Segmentation (MRSeg) is a parameter‑efficient framework that uses frozen ConvNeXt‑Tiny and PubMedBERT encoders to extract multiscale visual features and clinical text tokens. A joint router predicts a sparse mixture over low‑rank adapter bases, enabling separate adaptation for two visual scales and text while keeping feature‑specific parameters distinct. Region Bridge aggregates dense visual tokens into latent regions using text‑derived queries, refines them via self‑attention and text cross‑attention, and redistributes the refined information back to the feature maps, culminating in a multiscale decoder that combines refined semantic features with shallow image evidence. MRSeg achieves state‑of‑the‑art Dice/mIoU scores on QaTa‑COV19 and MosMedData+ with only 7.11 M trainable parameters and 7.60 GFLOPs.
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.
arXiv:2608. 13690v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical image segmentation is still largely treated as a vision-only problem, although clinical interpretation often relies on textual knowledge of anatomy, location, appearance, and surrounding context.
