Lesion-DDPM: Lesion-Enhanced 3D Diffusion for MS MRI Synthesis

arXiv:2606. 15457v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 3D FLAIR MRI is widely recommended as one of the standard MRI sequences for brain imaging in multiple sclerosis (MS), but publicly available MS datasets remain relatively small and vary across scanners, acquisition protocols, and lesion patterns.

VGG16-MCA UNet: Whole-Tumor Segmentation in 2D FLAIR MRI with Decoder-Side Channel Attention

VGG16-MCA UNet is a hybrid neural network that combines an ImageNet‑pretrained VGG16 encoder with a decoder enhanced by a Multi‑Channel Attention module, trained using Focal Tversky loss to address class imbalance. The model was evaluated as a 2‑D, FLAIR‑only whole‑tumor segmenter on BraTS 2020 and LGG datasets, achieving a pixel‑level Dice of 95.10 % on BraTS and 88.32 % on LGG in a 5‑fold cross‑validation setting. Inference time is 66.32 ms per 256×256 slice on a single RTX 2060, only slightly slower than a VGG16‑UNet without attention. whyItMatters":"The study provides a reproducible 2‑D FLAIR baseline for whole‑tumor segmentation, demonstrating high Dice scores and detailed reporting of training and evaluation protocols."
