However, the substantial computational load associated with Transformers limits their feasibility for deployment on resource-constrained mobile devices. To address this challenge, we propose a Statistical Multi-feature Adaptive Attention Network (SFANet) that aims to achieve a balance between segmentation accuracy and computational efficiency. In SFANet, we propose a Multi-dilation Asymmetric Convolution Block (MDACB) and a Group Feature Mask Enhancement Component (GMEC). MDACB is composed of Multi-dilation Asymmetric Convolution (MDAC), a set of ultra-lightweight Statistical Multi-feature Adaptive Spatial Recalibration Attention (SASA) modules, Statistical Multi-feature Adaptive Channel Recalibration Attention (SACA) modules, and residual connections. MDAC efficiently captures a wider range of contextual information while maintaining a lightweight structure. SASA and SACA integrate multi-statistical features along spatial and channel dimensions, adaptively fusing mean, maximum, standard deviation, and energy via learnable weights. Convolution operations then model spatial dependencies and capture cross-channel interactions to generate attention weights, enabling precise feature recalibration in both dimensions. GMEC groups features from lower decoding layers and skip connections, and then merges them with the corresponding stage-generated masks, enabling efficient and accurate feature processing in the decoding layers while maintaining a low parameter count. Experiments on the ISIC2017, ISIC2018, and PH2 datasets demonstrate that SFANet achieves a mIoU of 80.15%, 81.12%, and 85.30%, with only 0.037 M parameters and 0.234 GFLOPs.

Manual identification and segmentation of tumor regions in MRI is a time-consuming and subjective process, and may negatively impact diagnostic accuracy because the heterogeneity and infiltrative pattern of glioma are complex. To address these problems, we propose an automated glioma segmentation approach named IADSG (Intelligent Assistant Diagnosis System for Glioma), based on our novel VMDUnet architecture. Our method incorporates Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) as a preprocessing step to enhance image contrast and quality. Moreover, we use data augmentation techniques to improve the generalization and adaptability to complex clinical images of the model. Crucially, the integration of a Mamba module and a dual cross-attention mechanism enables the model to effectively balance segmentation accuracy with computational efficiency. Experimental results show that our approach achieves a segmentation accuracy of 0.7769 DSC on the internal glioma dataset and 0.9117 DSC on the public BraTS dataset, outperforming existing segmentation methods on both benchmarks. This approach reduces the time and effort involved in manual segmentation, reduces the probabilities of misdiagnosis, and provides robust support for the diagnosis and treatment to be accurately conducted.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most effective tool for detecting MS plaques, but contrast-enhanced imaging involves potential risks, including toxicity and increased imaging time. Previous methods for differentiating plaque types, such as texture analysis and manual feature extraction, face challenges such as limited datasets and poor generalizability. This study aims to develop and compare deep learning-based methods, specifically convolutional neural networks (CNNs), to classify MS lesion types using non-contrast MRI, aiming to improve clinical applicability and reduce reliance on contrast agents. This study involved 106 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients from two MRI centers. A total of 3410 lesions were analyzed, including 1408 active and 2002 inactive lesions. MRI images, including T1-weighted imaging with gadolinium contrast (T1 + Gd(, T1, Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR), and T2 sequences, were acquired. The segmented lesions were converted into 2D slices and resampled to 128 × 128 pixels for deep learning input. Data augmentation and normalization were applied to improve model generalizability. A custom CNN model was developed and compared with four pre-trained models (ResNet50, VGG16, DenseNet121, and EfficientNetB0) using fivefold cross-validation to evaluate model performance. Performance metrics including accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC were used. The custom CNN achieved 90.15% accuracy and 94.67% AUC in FLAIR, outperforming pre-trained models. DenseNet121 showed competitive results with 88.23% accuracy and 92.86% AUC in FLAIR. Non-contrast sequences (T1, T2, and FLAIR) combined with deep learning provided promising results, reducing reliance on contrast agents. The custom CNN model excelled in classifying MS lesions across multiple MRI sequences, offering improved diagnostic accuracy and patient safety. Custom models for specialized datasets can enhance clinical outcomes, demonstrating the potential of deep learning in MS diagnosis. These findings suggest that deep learning models can be replaced with contrast agents in routine practice. Future research may explore combining CNNs with clinical features to enhance performance and interpretability.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology","volume":"35 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144892482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing Transformer-based cardiac segmentation methods mostly rely on single-scale token-wise attention mechanisms that emphasize global feature modeling, but they lack sufficient sensitivity to local spatial structures, such as myocardial boundaries in cardiac 3D images, resulting in ineffective multiscale feature capturing and a loss of local spatial details, thereby negatively impacting the accuracy of cardiac anatomical segmentation. To address the above issues, this paper proposes a cardiac 3D image segmentation network named MSAF, which integrates Multiscale Collaborative Attention (MSCA) and Multiscale Feature Fusion (MSFF) modules to enhance the multiscale feature perception capability at both microscopic and macroscopic levels, thereby improving segmentation accuracy for complex cardiac structures. Within the MSCA module, a Collaborative Attention (CoA) module combined with hierarchical residual-like connections is designed, enabling the model to effectively capture interactive information across spatial and channel dimensions at various receptive fields and facilitating finer-grained feature extraction. In the MSFF module, a gradient-based feature importance weighting mechanism dynamically adjusts feature contributions from different hierarchical levels, effectively fusing high-level abstract semantic information with low-level spatial details, thereby enhancing cross-scale feature representation and optimizing both global completeness and local boundary precision in segmentation results. Experimental validation of MSAF was conducted on four publicly available medical image segmentation datasets, including ACDC, FlARE21, and MM-WHS (MRI and CT modalities), yielding average Dice values of 93.27%, 88.16%, 92.23%, and 91.22%, respectively.

Deep learning has shown significant potential in automating melanoma detection; however, existing methods face challenges such as irrelevant background information in dermoscopic images and class imbalance in melanoma datasets, which hinder diagnostic performance. To address these challenges, this paper introduces two complementary contributions: Pixel Intensity-Based Masking (PIBM) and Intensity-Weighted Binary Cross-Entropy (IW-BCE). PIBM is a novel preprocessing technique that dynamically identifies and masks low-priority regions in dermoscopic images based on pixel intensity values. By preserving high-intensity lesion regions and suppressing irrelevant background artifacts, PIBM reduces computational complexity and enhances the model's focus on diagnostically critical features, all without requiring ground truth annotations or pixel-level labeling. Additionally, IW-BCE, a custom loss function, is designed to handle class imbalance by dynamically adjusting the contribution of each class during training. By assigning higher weights to the minority class (malignant lesions), IW-BCE enhances the model's sensitivity, reduces false negatives, and improves recall, an essential metric in medical diagnostics. The proposed framework integrates PIBM and IW-BCE into a deep-learning pipeline for melanoma detection. Evaluations on benchmark datasets demonstrate that the combined approach achieves superior performance compared to traditional methods in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and computational efficiency. Specifically, the proposed method achieves a higher recall and F1-score, highlighting its ability to address the critical limitations of existing systems.

To address this, we introduce GlaucoDiff, a diffusion-based image synthesis framework designed to generate clinically meaningful glaucoma fundus images. It employs a two-stage training strategy and integrates a multimodal large language model as an automated quality filter to ensure clinical relevance. Experiments on the JustRAIGS dataset show that GlaucoDiff outperforms commercial generators such as DALL-E 3 and Keling, achieving better image quality and diversity (FID: 109.8; SWD: 222.2).
