MedSAM-3 enhances medical image segmentation with text prompts and LLM agents

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced MedSAM-3, a new model designed for medical image segmentation that leverages text prompts for precise targeting of anatomical structures. By fine-tuning the Segment Anything Model (SAM) architecture with medical images and conceptual labels, MedSAM-3 enables open-vocabulary segmentation. The model also incorporates an agent framework that integrates Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) for complex reasoning and iterative refinement, demonstrating superior performance across various medical imaging modalities compared to existing models.

    MedSAM3: Delving into Segment Anything with Medical Concepts

    arXiv:2511.19046v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Medical image segmentation is fundamental for biomedical discovery. Existing methods lack generalizability and demand extensive, time-consuming manual annotation for new clinical application. Here, we propose MedSAM-3, a t…
