UniFLM: United Segmentation and Measurement on Fetal Limb Ultrasonic Image

Prenatal ultrasound examination is crucial for assessing fetal limb development and detecting congenital anomalies. However, existing artificial intelligence models often overlook fetal lethal skeletal dysplasias due to the lack of high-quality annotated data and a unified framework for multiple long bones. Moreover, generic segmentation models struggle with the inherent noise and semantic gaps in ultrasound images. To address these challenges, we construct the Fetal Limb Bones (FLB) dataset, comprising high-quality annotations for the humerus, femur, tibia-fibula, and radius-ulna. Furthermore, we propose UniFLM, a unified framework for automatic cross-plane segmentation and measurement. UniFLM incorporates a Semantic-Aware Skip Connection module to bridge the semantic gap between encoder and decoder features, and a Positive Sampling strategy to adaptively filter noise and extract essential semantic information. Finally, a Point Regression Mapping module is introduced to learn clinician annotation patterns for precise bone length measurement. Extensive experiments conducted on the FLB dataset demonstrate that the proposed UniFLM achieves superior accuracy and enhanced generalization capabilities in fetal long bone assessment compared to current state-of-the-art models.

UniSpine-GS: An Efficient Physics-Aware Gaussian Framework for Cross-Modality Multi-view Spine Image Synthesis

The diagnosis of spinal diseases is often assisted by 3D imaging techniques in clinical practice. However, precise 3D spinal assessment is limited by the high costs of 3D imaging hardware and the challenges posed by the physical differences between imaging modalities, which hinder the generalizability of models. To address these issues, we propose UniSpine-GS, an efficient, physics-aware Gaussian framework designed for novel-view projection rendering in multi-view spine imaging via a 3D-aware representation. Instead of performing explicit 3D reconstruction, our approach learns a geometry-aware Gaussian representation that ensures anatomical consistency across different views. We introduce SPWM, a structure-guided loss reweighting strategy to improve boundary fidelity and local details. We evaluate our method on the CTSpine3D dataset and a newly constructed 3D fetal ultrasound dataset, FeSpine3D. Our results demonstrate that UniSpine-GS significantly outperforms existing methods across all metrics, offering a practical and cost-effective solution for unified multi-view medical imaging. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/orangeisland66/UniSpine-GS.
