InfiltrNet combines CNN and Transformer for brain tumor infiltration risk prediction

By PulseAugur Editorial · [3 sources] ·

Researchers have developed InfiltrNet, a novel dual-branch architecture designed to predict brain tumor infiltration risk. This system combines a CNN encoder with a Swin Transformer encoder, utilizing cross-attention fusion to generate risk maps from multimodal MRI scans. The approach aims to improve surgical planning and radiation therapy by estimating infiltration beyond visible tumor margins, outperforming existing methods in experiments on BraTS 2020 and BraTS 2025 datasets.
