We propose a contrast-augmented segmentation framework that exploits the inherent diversity of multi-echo T2*-weighted MRI to learn robust, contrast-invariant representations. Our method integrates: (i) masked autoencoding (MAE) for self-supervised pretraining on unlabeled multi-echo slices; (ii) masked pseudo-labeling (MPL) for semi-supervised domain adaptation across echo times; and (iii) global-local collaboration to align patch-level features with global anatomical context. We further introduce a semantic matching loss to encourage representation consistency across echoes of the same subject. Experiments on a clinical multi-echo placental MRI dataset demonstrate that our approach generalizes effectively across echo times and outperforms supervised baselines. To our knowledge, this is the first systematic framework tailored to multi-echo placental segmentation in T2*-weighted MRI.</p>","PeriodicalId":521087,"journal":{"name":"Perinatal, preterm and paediatric image analysis (2025)","volume":"16118 ","pages":"141-152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12498333/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145246275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
