3D Ultrasound-Derived Pseudo-CT Synthesis Using a Transformer-Augmented Residual Network for Real-Time Operator Guidance

Computed tomography (CT) is indispensable for clinical diagnosis and image-guided interventions but exposes patients to ionizing radiation, motivating the development of safer imaging alternatives. Ultrasound (US) is non-ionizing and widely accessible; however, it is highly operator dependent and lacks quantitative tissue characterization, often leading to diagnostic uncertainty and unnecessary CT examinations. This work presents a 3D ultrasound-derived pseudo-CT (UD-pCT) framework that generates CT-like anatomical reference volumes inferred from US, without aiming to reproduce physically accurate Hounsfield Units. Paired 3D kidney US and CT volumes from the TRUSTED dataset are first spatially aligned using a landmark-based multimodal registration pipeline, creating high-quality paired inputs for supervised training of an adversarial framework. The proposed Bottleneck Transformer Residual U-Net3D (BT-ResUNet3D) model employs a 3D residual encoder-decoder generator augmented with a transformer bottleneck, enabling effective modeling of fine-grained local anatomical structures as well as long-range volumetric dependencies, while a 3D Conditional PatchGAN discriminator enforces local structural realism in the synthesized pseudo-CT volumes. Quantitative evaluation using PSNR and SSIM demonstrates that the proposed method outperforms established baselines in structural fidelity and perceptual image quality. The UD-pCT volumes provide real-time anatomical reference for operator guidance, potentially reducing acquisition variability and unnecessary CT use. A limitation of this study is the relatively small paired dataset, which may limit the generalizability of the proposed model.

A Robust Unsupervised Domain Adaptation Framework for Medical Image Classification Using RKHS-MMD

Labeling medical images is a major bottleneck in the field of medical imaging, as it requires domain-specific expertise, and it gets further complicated due to variability across different medical centers and different imaging devices. Such heterogeneity introduces domain shifts and modality discrepancies, which limits the generalization of trained models. To address this important challenge, we propose an unsupervised domain adaptation framework that combines transfer learning with a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space based Maximum Mean Discrepancy loss for the alignment of source and target domains. By jointly optimizing classification and RKHS-MMD losses, the methodology enhances generalization to unannotated medical datasets while diminishing reliance on manual annotation. Experimental evaluations presented on two chest X-ray datasets, which are obtained from different medical centers, show outstanding improvements over models trained without adaptation. Furthermore, we perform a comparative study to see that RKHS-MMD performs better than the standard Maximum Mean Discrepancy in reducing modality gap, emphasizing its effectiveness for medical image classification and also its strong capability in advanced AI-driven medical diagnostics.

MK-ResRecon: Multi-Kernel Residual Framework for Texture-Aware 3D MRI Refinement from Sparse 2D Slices

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) acquisition remains a time-intensive and patient-straining process, as prolonged scan dura- tions increase the likelihood of motion artifacts, which degrade image quality and frequently require repeated scans. To address these chal- lenges, we propose a novel framework with two models MK-ResRecon and IdentityRefineNet3D to reconstruct high-fidelity 3D MRI volumes from sparsely sampled 2D slices-requiring only 12.5% of the axial slices for full resolution 3D reconstruction. MK-ResRecon predicts missing in- termediate 2D slices using a multi-kernel texture-aware loss, preserving fine anatomical details. IdentityRefineNet3D refines the predicted slices and the original sparse slices as a single 3D volume to obtain a smooth anatomical structure. We train the models on a large T1-sequence POST- contrast brain MRI dataset and evaluate on a large heterogeneous brain MRI cohort. The work provides accurate, hallucination-free, generaliz- able and clinically validated framework for 3D MRI reconstruction from highly sparse inputs and enables a clinically viable path towards faster and more patient-friendly MRI imaging.

Orientation-Aware Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Brain Tumor Classification Across Multi-Modal MRI

The clinical integration of deep learning models for brain tumor diagnosis in neuro-oncology is severely constrained by limited expert-annotated MRI data and substantial inter-institutional domain shift arising from variations in scanners, imaging protocols, and contrast settings. These challenges significantly impair model generalization in real-world settings. To address this, we propose a novel orientation-aware unsupervised domain-adaptive framework for automated brain tumor classification using mixed 2D MRI slices. Initially, a CNN with large receptive field first categorizes input slices into axial, sagittal, and coronal views. For each orientation, a CNN architecture with ResNet50 backbone augmented with four fully connected layers is trained to extract discriminative features for tumor classification. To mitigate annotation scarcity and domain discrepancies, we introduce a slice-wise unsupervised domain adaptation strategy that transfers knowledge from the multi-modal such as T1, T2, and FLAIR source domain to the post-contrast T1 target domain. Feature-level alignment is enforced using maximum mean discrepancy loss, complemented by pseudo-label guided adaptation to preserve class discriminability. Extensive experiments demonstrate improved target-domain performance over prior approaches, highlighting the benefits of orientation-specific learning, multi-modal knowledge transfer, pseudo-label-guided adaptation, and unsupervised domain adaptation.
