Med-CTX: Revolutionizing Breast Cancer Ultrasound Segmentation with Multimodal Transformers

3 Comments / Machine Learning /

Breast cancer remains one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide, with early and accurate diagnosis being crucial for effective treatment. Medical imaging, particularly ultrasound, plays a vital role in lesion detection and characterization. However, despite advances in artificial intelligence (AI), many deep learning models used for breast cancer ultrasound segmentation still function as “black boxes,”
