MedSAM / SAM-Med3D (segment anything for medicine)
Adaptations of Meta's Segment Anything model that outline tumours and organs on any scan with a click.
MedSAM (Nature Communications 2024) fine-tuned SAM on 1.5M image-mask pairs across modalities; SAM-Med3D extends to volumes. Used for radiotherapy contouring and response measurement.
How it works
MedSAM is a promptable segmentation transformer fine-tuned on medical masks.
- Interactive, general
- Needs prompts; boundary errors on small lesions
