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.
