The advent of large-scale self-supervised learning (SSL) has produced a vast zoo of medical foundation models. However, selecting optimal medical foundation models for specific segmentation tasks remains a computational bottleneck. Existing…

In recent years, deep learning has become a breakthrough technique in assisting medical image diagnosis. Supervised learning using convolutional neural networks (CNN) provides state-of-the-art performance and has served as a benchmark for…

Generalising deep models to new data from new centres (termed here domains) remains a challenge. This is largely attributed to shifts in data statistics (domain shifts) between source and unseen domains. Recently, gradient-based…

Exploiting available medical records to train high performance computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) models via the semi-supervised learning (SSL) setting is emerging to tackle the prohibitively high labor costs involved in large-scale medical…

Object completion networks typically produce static Signed Distance Fields (SDFs) that faithfully reconstruct geometry but cannot be rescaled or deformed without introducing structural distortions. This limitation restricts their use in…

The segmentation of organs at risk (OAR) is a required precondition for the cancer treatment with image guided radiation therapy. The automation of the segmentation task is therefore of high clinical relevance. Deep Learning (DL) based…

Active contours Model (ACM) has been extensively used in computer vision and image processing. In recent studies, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been combined with active contours replacing the user in the process of contour…

Deep learning empowers the mainstream medical image segmentation methods. Nevertheless current deep segmentation approaches are not capable of efficiently and effectively adapting and updating the trained models when new incremental…

Medical data often exhibits long-tail distributions with heavy class imbalance, which naturally leads to difficulty in classifying the minority classes (i.e., boundary regions or rare objects). Recent work has significantly improved…

Deep learning techniques for medical image analysis usually suffer from the domain shift between source and target data. Most existing works focus on unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA). However, in practical applications, privacy issues…

Deploying lightweight medical image segmentation models on edge devices presents two major challenges: 1) efficiently handling the stark contrast between lesion boundaries and background regions, and 2) the sharp drop in accuracy that…

Accurate medical image segmentation is essential for effective diagnosis and treatment planning but is often challenged by domain shifts caused by variations in imaging devices, acquisition conditions, and patient-specific attributes.…

Medical image segmentation remains challenging in low-data regimes, where scarce annotations often yield poor generalization and ambiguous boundaries with missing fine structures. Recent self-supervised pretraining has improved…

We present our novel deep multi-task learning method for medical image segmentation. Existing multi-task methods demand ground truth annotations for both the primary and auxiliary tasks. Contrary to it, we propose to generate the…

Segmentation of 3D medical images is a critical task for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have dominated the field, achieving significant success in 3D medical image segmentation. However, CNNs…

In multi-organ segmentation of abdominal CT scans, most existing fully supervised deep learning algorithms require lots of voxel-wise annotations, which are usually difficult, expensive, and slow to obtain. In comparison, massive unlabeled…

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has emerged as a critical paradigm for medical image segmentation, mitigating the immense cost of dense annotations. However, prevailing SSL frameworks are fundamentally "inward-looking", recycling information…

Image segmentation is a fundamental topic in image processing and has been studied for many decades. Deep learning-based supervised segmentation models have achieved state-of-the-art performance but most of them are limited by using…

Automating tissue segmentation and tumor detection in histopathology images of colorectal cancer (CRC) is an enabler for faster diagnostic pathology workflows. At the same time it is a challenging task due to low availability of public…
