• Abstract: Recent advancements in AI have significantly transformed medical imaging, particularly in angiography, by enhancing diagnostic precision and patient care. However existing works are limited in analyzing the aorta and iliac arteries, above all for vascular anomaly detection and characterization. To close this gap, we propose Dr-SAM, a comprehensive multi-stage framework for vessel segmentation, diameter estimation, and anomaly analysis aiming to examine the peripheral vessels through angiography images. For segmentation we introduce a customized positive/negative point selection mechanism applied on top of the Segment Anything Model (SAM), specifically for medical (Angiography) images. Then we propose a morphological approach to determine the vessel diameters followed by our histogram-driven anomaly detection approach. Moreover, we introduce a new benchmark dataset for the comprehensive analysis of peripheral vessel angiography images which we hope can boost the upcoming research in this direction leading to enhanced diagnostic precision and ultimately better health outcomes for individuals facing vascular issues.

  Image-to-text radiology report generation aims to automatically produce radiology reports that describe the findings in medical images. Most existing methods focus solely on the image data, disregarding the other patient information accessible to radiologists. We present a novel multi-modal deep neural network framework for generating chest X-rays reports by integrating structured patient data, such as vital signs and symptoms, alongside unstructured clinical notes.
