DINO-Med introduces a patch‑based framework that adapts natural‑image foundation models, specifically DINOv3, to multi‑modal medical imaging. The method uses training‑free registration, automated localization, and mask‑filtered patch extraction to aggregate patch‑level features into subject‑level diagnostics. In liver fibrosis staging, DINOv3 outperforms handcrafted radiomics, ResNet, and SAM‑Med2D features, achieving 78.4% accuracy for mild fibrosis (S1) and 75.8% for cirrhosis (S4) on the CARE 2025 cohort.

The paper introduces DINO-Med, a patch‑based framework that adapts natural‑image foundation models to multi‑modal medical imaging, specifically for liver fibrosis staging. It processes raw multimodal scans through training‑free registration, automated localization, and mask‑filtered patch extraction, then aggregates patch‑level insights into subject‑level diagnostics. Using the CARE 2025 Liver Track 4 cohort, the DINOv3‑based approach achieved the highest classification accuracy (78.4% for mild fibrosis and 75.8% for cirrhosis) compared to other feature representations.

arXiv:2606. 16991v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multiphasic contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is widely used for abdominal lesion characterization, yet it carries inherent risks of contrast-induced nephropathy, escalates acquisition burden, and heavily contributes to radiologist workload.
