DeepCAN-SEG-PosEnc-T1
Canine Brain MRI 9-Class Segmentation — T1 sequence adapted
A T1-weighted axial domain adaptation of hwonheo/DeepCAN-SEG-PosEnc.
The shared base (T2-trained) was adapted to T1 with LoRA (rank 16, α 32) on Conv3d
layers; the adapters are merged into the base weights, so this checkpoint is a
standard LRSegmentationMultiClassUNet — a drop-in replacement loaded exactly like
the base model.
Classes (9, L/R separated)
0 Background · 1/5 Lateral Ventricle L/R · 2/6 Gray Matter L/R ·
3/7 White Matter L/R · 4/8 Cerebellum L/R
Input is 4-channel: image intensity + normalized x/y/z position encoding (for L/R
hemisphere discrimination). Models expect the RPS orientation / 0.5 mm grid layout.
Performance (held-out T1 subjects, Dice, mean of classes 1–8)
| split | base (T2 model on T1) | T1-adapted | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| val | 0.322 | 0.649 | +0.327 |
| test | 0.298 | 0.626 | +0.328 |
Per-class val Dice: BG 0.96 · Cereb 0.79/0.81 · GM 0.69/0.69 · WM 0.58/0.61 · Vent 0.52/0.52. The base T2 model nearly collapses on T1 (WM/Ventricle ~0.1–0.2); T1 adaptation roughly doubles Dice with symmetric L/R recovery.

local_dir="src/checkpoint/DeepCAN-SEG-PosEnc-T1")
# Loads exactly like the T2 base (plain UNet, in_channels auto-detected = 4)
from src.inference.models.segmentation_inferencer import SegmentationInferencer
seg = SegmentationInferencer(
checkpoint_path="src/checkpoint/DeepCAN-SEG-PosEnc-T1/DeepCAN-SEG-PosEnc-T1.pth",

In the clinical pipeline, T1 axial scans are auto-detected from DICOM metadata (EchoTime/RepetitionTime/SeriesDescription) and routed to this checkpoint.
