PRIME-SVR: Physics-infoRmed Implicit Multi-Echo Slice-to-Volume Reconstruction for Fetal T2 mapping

arXiv:2607. 20136v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Slice-to-volume reconstruction (SVR) is the standard method for obtaining high-resolution (HR) 3D fetal brain volumes from motion-corrupted 2D MRI slice stacks acquired in multiple orientations.

FiberGeoText: A Vision-Language Model for Population- Level Organization of Superficial White Matter

FiberGeoText (FGT) is a vision‑language model that clusters short‑range superficial white matter streamlines from ultra‑high‑resolution diffusion MRI into population‑level groups. It jointly encodes each streamline’s 3‑D trajectory, cortical anatomical context (via text from multiple parcellation schemes), and shape, using a pretrained large language model to unify heterogeneous anatomical descriptions. Evaluations on 0.76 mm diffusion data show that FGT outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods in cortical parcel coherence, shape consistency, cluster‑size consistency, and cross‑subject correspondence, and it generalizes well to unseen subjects, recovering 96.7 % of learned clusters.

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.

Anatomy-Aligned Surface Field Learning for Myocardial Reconstruction from Sparse Short-Axis Cine MRI

The paper presents an anatomy‑aligned surface learning framework for reconstructing patient‑specific 4D myocardial surfaces from sparsely sampled short‑axis cine MRI. By parameterizing epicardial and endocardial surfaces on a shared circumferential‑longitudinal UV domain, the method transforms irregular 3D reconstruction into structured coordinate‑field completion, enabling explicit correspondence across subjects and cardiac phases. Experiments on three public datasets show the approach outperforms mesh‑based and implicit methods, achieving Chamfer distances around 2.6–2.9 mm and preserving ventricular function with small errors in volume and ejection fraction.
