• Authors: Kengo Araki, Mariyo Rokutan-Kurata, Kazuhiro Terada, Akihiko Yoshizawa and Ryoma Bise
• Abstract summary: The distance from the Boundary of tissue (DfB) is global information that can be extracted from the original image. We experimentally applied our method to the three-class classification of cervical cancer, and found that it improved the total performance compared with the conventional method.

• Abstract: Pathological diagnosis is used for examining cancer in detail, and its automation is in demand. To automatically segment each cancer area, a patch-based approach is usually used since a Whole Slide Image (WSI) is huge. However, this approach loses the global information needed to distinguish between classes. In this paper, we utilized the Distance from the Boundary of tissue (DfB), which is global information that can be extracted from the original image. We experimentally applied our method to the three-class classification of cervical cancer, and found that it improved the total performance compared with the conventional method.

  We propose a simple approach to improve OOD generalisation for cancer detection by focusing on nuclear morphology and organisation. Our approach integrates original images with nuclear segmentation masks during training, encouraging the model to prioritise nuclei. We show, using multiple datasets, that our method improves OOD generalisation and also leads to increased robustness to image corruptions and adversarial attacks.

  Rectal cancer segmentation of CT image plays a crucial role in timely clinical diagnosis, radiotherapy treatment, and follow-up. These obstacles arise from the intricate anatomical structures of the rectum and the difficulties in performing differential diagnosis of rectal cancer. To address these issues, this work introduces a novel large scale rectal cancer CT image dataset CARE with pixel-level annotations for both normal and cancerous rectum. We also propose a novel medical cancer lesion segmentation benchmark model named U-SAM. The model is specifically designed to tackle the challenges posed by the intricate anatomical structures of abdominal organs by incorporating prompt information.
