This paper investigates the impact of breast density distribution on the generalization performance of deep-learning models on mammography images using the VinDr-Mammo dataset. We explore the use of domain adaptation techniques, specifically Domain Adaptive Object Detection (DAOD) with the Noise Latent Transferability Exploration (NLTE) framework, to improve model performance across breast densities under noisy labeling circumstances. We propose a robust augmentation framework to bridge the domain gap between the source and target inside a dataset. Our results show that DAOD-based methods, along with the proposed augmentation framework, can improve the generalization performance of deep-learning models (+5% overall mAP improvement approximately in our experimental results compared to commonly used detection models). This paper highlights the importance of domain adaptation techniques in medical imaging, particularly in the context of breast density distribution, which is critical in mammography.

Scribble-supervised methods have emerged to mitigate the prohibitive annotation burden in medical image segmentation. However, the inherent sparsity of these annotations introduces significant ambiguity, which results in noisy pseudo-label propagation and hinders the learning of robust anatomical boundaries. To address this challenge, we propose SDT-Net, a novel dual-teacher, single-student framework designed to maximize supervision quality from these weak signals. Our method features a Dynamic Teacher Switching (DTS) module to adaptively select the most reliable teacher. This selected teacher then guides the student via two synergistic mechanisms: high-confidence pseudo-labels, refined by a Pick Reliable Pixels (PRP) mechanism, and multi-level feature alignment, enforced by a Hierarchical Consistency (HiCo) module. Extensive experiments on the ACDC and MSCMRseg datasets demonstrate that SDT-Net achieves state-of-the-art performance, producing more accurate and anatomically plausible segmentation.

Breast Ultrasound plays a vital role in cancer diagnosis as a non-invasive approach with cost-effective. In recent years, with the development of deep learning, many CNN-based approaches have been widely researched in both tumor localization and cancer classification tasks. Even though previous single models achieved great performance in both tasks, these methods have some limitations in inference time, GPU requirement, and separate fine-tuning for each model. In this study, we aim to redesign and build end-to-end multi-task architecture to conduct both segmentation and classification. With our proposed approach, we achieved outstanding performance and time efficiency, with 79.8% and 86.4% in DeepLabV3+ architecture in the segmentation task.
