Researchers have developed AtlasSegFM, a novel framework designed to improve the accuracy of medical image segmentation. This system customizes existing foundation models for new clinical contexts using just a single annotated example. AtlasSegFM achieves this by generating context-aware prompts through atlas-query registration, refining segmentations with a frozen foundation model, and integrating atlas priors with the foundation model's outputs via a lightweight fusion module. Experiments across various datasets demonstrate significant improvements, particularly for small and delicate anatomical structures, offering a practical solution for real-world clinical applications.
