ZODIAC: Zero-shot Octree-based Diffusion for Anatomical Completion
Miruna-Alexandra Gafencu, Vlad Bratulescu, Yordanka Velikova +2
Recovering the full 3D spine anatomy from intraoperative ultrasound is an ill-posed inverse problem, as the complete structure must be inferred from incomplete and noisy observatio…
Modular Robotic Catheters for Endovascular Aneurysm Repair
Alex Ranne, Jinshi Zhao, Ali Anil Demircali +5
Fenestrated/Branched endovascular aneurysm repair (FEVAR/BEVAR) require surgeons to navigate catheters and guidewires into various branches of the abdominal aorta, before deploying…
Paired Uterine Whole-Slide Images and Pathology Reports for Multimodal Computational Pathology
Han Li, Jingsong Liu, Ayako Ura +14
Uterine diseases represent an important category of gynecologic pathology and require accurate histopathological assessment for diagnosis and treatment planning. Whole-slide images…
MAC-XA: Multi-view Anatomy-Correspondence Fusion for Coronary Stenosis Reporting from X-ray Angiography
Chen Jia, Baochang Zhang, Fatia Kusuma Dewi +4
Multi-view reasoning in coronary X-ray angiography is inherently a cross-projection geometric problem, yet automated report generation in this setting remains largely unexplored. T…
Towards Voxel Spacing Consistency for Medical Image Segmentation
