RARF is a task‑agnostic, region‑aware rectified flow framework designed for 3D brain MRI inpainting. It limits stochastic interpolation to the inpainting region while keeping observed voxels fixed, using a 3D neural network that processes a partially voided image, Gaussian noise, a mask, and a timestep. The model is trained with masked flow‑matching and reconstruction‑consistency objectives, and during inference it transports noise toward a plausible reconstruction that preserves anatomical consistency, achieving competitive results on the BraTS Inpainting Challenge 2026.
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.

Foundation models such as Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM2) have transformed natural-image and video segmentation, and recent work has begun adapting them to medical imaging. These adaptations, however, are largely general-purpose models that treat MRI as one modality among many; large-scale, MRI-specific modelling and benchmarking remain limited, even though MRI's low soft-tissue contrast leaves many boundaries effectively invisible on individual slices.
