RTNet: Relation Transformer Network for Diabetic Retinopathy Multi-Lesion Segmentation

Shiqi Huang et al.

Summary: Automatic diabetic retinopathy (DR) lesions segmentation is important for assisting ophthalmologists in diagnosis. We propose a relation transformer block (RTB) to handle the interactions between lesion features and vessel features, and a global transformer block (GTB) to capture small lesion patterns. Experimental results show the competitive performance of our approach compared to state-of-the-arts.

Progressive Multiscale Consistent Network for Multiclass Fundus Lesion Segmentation

Along He et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a progressive multi-scale consistent network (PMCNet) to address two issues in the multi-class segmentation of fundus lesions: the lack of interaction between adjacent feature levels and the conflict between low-level and high-level features. The progressive feature fusion (PFF) block is used to integrate multi-scale features, while the dynamic attention block (DAB) is used to ensure feature consistency. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.

UNETR: Transformers for 3D Medical Image Segmentation

Ali Hatamizadeh et al.

Summary: Fully Convolutional Neural Networks (FCNNs) have been successful in medical image segmentation, but their limited ability to learn long-range dependencies is a challenge. Inspired by transformers in NLP, we propose a novel architecture called UNet Transformers (UNETR) to redefine volumetric medical image segmentation as a sequence prediction problem. By combining transformers and U-shaped network design in the encoder and decoder, we effectively capture global information and achieve semantic segmentation output.
