During image-guided procedures, real-time image segmentation is often required. This demands lightweight AI models that can operate on resource-constrained devices. One important use case is endoscopy-guided colonoscopy, where polyps must…
Pixel-wise image segmentation is a highly demanding task in medical-image analysis. In practice, it is difficult to find annotated medical images with corresponding segmentation masks. In this paper, we present Kvasir-SEG: an open-access…
Mucous glands lesions analysis and assessing of malignant potential of colon polyps are very important tasks of surgical pathology. However, differential diagnosis of colon polyps often seems impossible by classical methods and it is…
Automated polyp segmentation is critical for early colorectal cancer detection and its prevention, yet remains challenging due to weak boundaries, large appearance variations, and limited annotated data. Lightweight segmentation models such…
In medical imaging, efficient segmentation of colon polyps plays a pivotal role in minimally invasive solutions for colorectal cancer. This study introduces a novel approach employing two parallel encoder branches within a network for polyp…
Colonoscopy screening effectively identifies and removes polyps before they progress to colorectal cancer (CRC), but current follow-up guidelines rely primarily on histopathological features, overlooking other important CRC risk factors.…
Accurate segmentation of polyps from colonoscopy videos is of great significance to polyp treatment and early prevention of colorectal cancer. However, it is challenging due to the difficulties associated with modelling long-range…
