Merlin Plus: A Large-Scale, Multi-Cancer, Image-Mask-Report Dataset
Pedro R. A. S. Bassi, Wenxuan Li, Szymon Plotka +10
Multi-cancer segmentation in computed tomography (CT) is fundamentally limited by the scarcity of tumor masks across different organs. We present Merlin Plus, the first large-scale…
RT-Super: Learning Tumor Segmentation from Longitudinal Images and Reports
Pedro R. A. S. Bassi, Wenxuan Li, Hanxue Gu +11
Multi-tumor segmentation is important for early cancer detection and allows radiologists to visualize, verify, and understand AI predictions. However, tumor segmentation masks are…
A Unified Vision-Language Model for PSMA PET/CT Report Generation, Visual Question Answering, and Lesion Segmentation
Yang Xing, Jiong Wu, Savas Ozdemir +11
Accurate PSMA PET/CT interpretation is central to prostate cancer management, yet existing PET/CT AI models typically address isolated tasks. We propose a unified PSMA PET/CT visio…
LightMedSeg-ISLES: Stroke Lesion Segmentation with 81x Fewer Parameters than nnU-Net
Giorgi Nikvashvili, Hanxue Gu, Jie Bao +2
Large networks and ensembles often lead medical image segmentation challenges, but their storage and inference demands complicate deployment. We present LightMedSeg-ISLES, a 1.26-m…
Automated Report-Derived Oncology VQA Benchmark for Evaluating Vision-Language Models on 3D Medical Imaging
Bo Liu, Hanxue Gu, Xiangru Li +6
Evaluating vision-language models (VLMs) on medical images requires benchmarks that are clinically grounded, scalable, and controlled for evaluation confounds. Existing public benc…
Distilling Photon-Counting CT into Routine Chest CT through Clinically Validated Degradation Modeling
Junqi Liu, Xinze Zhou, Wenxuan Li +10
Photon-counting CT (PCCT) provides superior image quality with higher spatial resolution and lower noise compared to conventional energy-integrating CT (EICT), but its limited clin…
BRIGHT: A Collaborative Generalist-Specialist Foundation Model for Breast Pathology
Xiaojing Guo, Jiatai Lin, Yumian Jia +39
Generalist pathology foundation models (PFMs), pretrained on large-scale multi-organ datasets, have demonstrated remarkable predictive capabilities across diverse clinical applicat…
See More, Change Less: Anatomy-Aware Diffusion for Contrast Enhancement
Junqi Liu, Zejun Wu, Pedro R. A. S. Bassi +15
Image enhancement improves visual quality and helps reveal details that are hard to see in the original image. In medical imaging, it can support clinical decision-making, but curr…
Scaling Artificial Intelligence for Multi-Tumor Early Detection with More Reports, Fewer Masks
Pedro R. A. S. Bassi, Xinze Zhou, Wenxuan Li +20
Early tumor detection save lives. Each year, more than 300 million computed tomography (CT) scans are performed worldwide, offering a vast opportunity for effective cancer screenin…
MedSegFactory: Text-Guided Generation of Medical Image-Mask Pairs
Jiawei Mao, Yuhan Wang, Yucheng Tang +5
This paper presents MedSegFactory, a versatile medical synthesis framework that generates high-quality paired medical images and segmentation masks across modalities and tasks. It…
Expectation-Maximization as the Engine of Scalable Medical Intelligence
Wenxuan Li, Pedro R. A. S. Bassi, Tianyu Lin +19
Large, high-quality, annotated datasets are the foundation of medical AI research, but constructing even a small, moderate-quality, annotated dataset can take years of effort from…
