ViPSAM framework enhances medical image segmentation using visual prompting

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed ViPSAM, a novel visual prompting framework designed to improve medical image segmentation, particularly for non-contrast images. Built upon the Segment Anything Model (SAM), ViPSAM utilizes contrast-enhanced MRI scans to provide visual guidance for segmenting lesions in low-contrast non-contrast CT (NCCT) images. This approach enhances lesion representation and has demonstrated superior performance compared to existing U-Net and SAM-based methods in liver lesion segmentation for proton therapy planning. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more accurate and efficient medical image analysis, particularly in scenarios with limited contrast information.

    ViPSAM: Visual Prompting Medical Image Segmentation Using Segment Anything Model

    arXiv:2607.14328v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In proton therapy planning, respiratory-gated non-contrast CT (NCCT) is commonly used for lesion segmentation; however, accurate delineation remains challenging due to low lesion-to-background contrast. Although learning-based met…
