PET Quantification-Preserving Registration for Longitudinal Whole-Body PSMA PET/CT

Fryderyk Kögl, Anna Reithmeir, Daniel M. Lang +3

We adapt the diffeomorphic coarse-to-fine LapIRN architecture for longitudinal whole-body PSMA PET/CT registration in the Learn2Reg 2026 PSMAReg challenge. The method combines affi…

Applications of Neural Cellular Automata: State of the Art, Challenges and Opportunities

Nick Lemke, Niklas Ihm, John Kalkhof +11

Neural Cellular Automata (NCAs) are a new type of neural network architecture which enable accurate and robust inference at extremely small model sizes. Recently, NCAs have advance…

Graph Representation Learning of Longitudinal Medical Imaging Trajectories for Treatment Response Prediction

Johannes Kiechle, Richard Osuala, Daniel M. Lang +5

In patients with breast cancer, pathological complete response (pCR) has been established as a clinically meaningful surrogate marker for long-term outcomes. While commonly treated…

Entropy Minimization without Model Collapse: Mitigating Prediction Bias in Medical Imaging

Tim Nielen, Sameer Ambekar, Johannes Kiechle +2

Entropy minimization (EM) is the dominant objective for test-time adaptation, yet its failure mode, model collapse, remains poorly understood. In this work, we show that distributi…

The Mean is the Mirage: Entropy-Adaptive Model Merging under Heterogeneous Domain Shifts in Medical Imaging

Sameer Ambekar, Reza Nasirigerdeh, Peter J. Schuffler +3

Model merging under unseen test-time distribution shifts often renders naive strategies, such as mean averaging unreliable. This challenge is especially acute in medical imaging, w…
