Controllable Diffusion-Based Lesion Inpainting for Scalable Histopathology Data Augmentation

arXiv:2601. 08127v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Expert-annotated training data remains the critical bottleneck for AI in histopathology, particularly for rare pathologies where even dozens of cases may be unavailable.

Assessment of Conditional Diffusion Model for Synthetic Histopathology Image Generation

arXiv:2608. 03990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic histopathology image generation has emerged as an approach that may address data scarcity in computational pathology, yet current evaluation methodologies may not fully assess synthetic data quality for medical applications.

Steering Diffusion Models via Class-Contrastive Influence for Few-Shot Medical Classification

arXiv:2607. 12464v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When labeled data are scarce, off-the-shelf diffusion models can augment training sets for few-shot medical image classification, but not all generated samples are equally useful for the downstream task.

Unsupervised Adaptation of 3D CT Foundation Models for 3D CBCT Segmentation

The paper introduces an unsupervised domain adaptation framework that aligns redundancy-reducing features to enable accurate 3D segmentation of cone-beam CT (CBCT) without target-domain annotations or inference-time adaptation. The method is architecture-agnostic, working with both CNN-based and ViT-based foundation models, and is evaluated on two liver segmentation benchmarks for interventional vascular procedures and radiation therapy. Results show that even large pretrained segmentation networks need explicit feature-space bridging to generalize across diagnostic CT and CBCT, and the proposed approach consistently outperforms existing pretrained foundation models and UDA strategies.
