The study explores how adding anatomical priors and active learning can improve the accuracy of deep learning models for segmenting the Clinical Target Volume (CTV) in gastric cancer radiotherapy. Using 100 retrospective CT scans, an nnU‑Net model trained on 10 expert‑contoured cases was enhanced with voxel‑wise anatomical prior maps and iterative active learning over four rounds. The combined approach raised the mean Dice Similarity Coefficient from 0.84 to 0.87, demonstrating that both techniques individually and together improve segmentation performance and generalizability.

DALE-CT introduces depth‑aware 2D slice encoders that learn an anatomical world model of chest CT scans without 3D or positional supervision. By sampling self‑supervised views across a physical $z$‑axis slab, the encoder captures how anatomy changes between neighboring slices, enabling it to recover slice ordering and distinguish slices by anatomy alone. The model, trained on a large 287k‑scan corpus, achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on CT‑RATE and is released with full code and evaluation tools.

The paper introduces two lightweight spectral adapters—Directional Spectral Adapter (DiSECT) and Spectral Instance-Guided Adapter (SiGA)—to adapt the Segment Anything Model (SAM) for accurate segmentation of colorectal liver metastases in contrast‑enhanced CT scans. SiGA achieves the highest single‑point Dice score of 0.77 and performs comparably to a 3D nnU‑Net baseline under no‑prompt inference, while DiSECT requires only 0.14 million trainable parameters. The study evaluates the adapters on 446 CT volumes across various prompting regimes, demonstrating that spectral adapters can efficiently adapt SAM with limited trainable parameters while maintaining strong segmentation accuracy.
