• Abstract summary: We present a novel approach that adapts pre-trained natural image encoders of SAM for detection-based region proposals. The entire base framework, SAM, requires no additional training or fine-tuning but could produce an end-to-end result for two fundamental segmentation tasks in pathology.

• Abstract: Medical image processing usually requires a model trained with carefully crafted datasets due to unique image characteristics and domain-specific challenges, especially in pathology. Primitive detection and segmentation in digitized tissue samples are essential for objective and automated diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. SAM (Segment Anything Model) has recently been developed to segment general objects from natural images with high accuracy, but it requires human prompts to generate masks. In this work, we present a novel approach that adapts pre-trained natural image encoders of SAM for detection-based region proposals. Regions proposed by a pre-trained encoder are sent to cascaded feature propagation layers for projection. Then, local semantic and global context is aggregated from multi-scale for bounding box localization and classification. Finally, the SAM decoder uses the identified bounding boxes as essential prompts to generate a comprehensive primitive segmentation map. The entire base framework, SAM, requires no additional training or fine-tuning but could produce an end-to-end result for two fundamental segmentation tasks in pathology. Our method compares with state-of-the-art models in F1 score for nuclei detection and binary/multiclass panoptic(bPQ/mPQ) and mask quality(dice) for segmentation quality on the PanNuke dataset while offering end-to-end efficiency. Our model also achieves remarkable Average Precision (+4.5%) on the secondary dataset (HuBMAP Kidney) compared to Faster RCNN. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/learner-codec/autoprom_sam.

  We propose a domain-generalizable framework for nuclei image segmentation, abbreviated to NuSegDG. HS-Adapter learns multi-dimensional feature representations of different nuclei domains by injecting a small number of trainable parameters into the image encoder of SAM. GKP-Encoder generates density maps driven by a single point, which guides segmentation predictions by mixing position prompts and semantic prompts.

  Medical image segmentation aims to identify and locate abnormal structures in medical images, such as chest radiographs, using deep neural networks. Our work collects explanations from well-trained classifiers to generate pseudo labels of segmentation tasks. We then use Integrated Gradients (IG) method to distill and boost the explanations obtained from the classifiers, generating massive diagnosis-oriented localization labels (DoLL) These DoLL-annotated images are used for pre-training the model before fine-tuning it for downstream segmentation tasks, including COVID-19 infectious areas, lungs, heart, and clavicles.
