Anatomically-guided Masked Autoencoder with Domain-Adaptive Prompting (AMAP) for multimodal cerebral aneurysm detection and segmentation [PDF]
Intracranial cerebral aneurysms are life-threatening vascular abnormalities whose rupture may result in subarachnoid hemorrhage, stroke, or death. Detecting and delineating aneurysms, particularly those under 5 mm, is essential for risk assessment and ...
