30
+ - **From BatchNorm to InstanceNorm:** Early versions (V3) suffered from performance collapse (AUROC ~0.55) due to the conflict between a batch size of 1 and Batch Normalization layers. Switching to **Instance Normalization** resolved this by stabilizing feature maps regardless of batch size.
31
+ - **Robust Temporal Aggregation:** To prevent the massive overfitting observed with LSTM units (~0.0003 training loss but poor validation), we implemented **Temporal Mean Pooling**. This non-learnable layer effectively summarizes the enhancement kinetics without the parameter overhead of recurrent networks.

+ ## Advanced Pre-processing & Augmentation
34
+ - **Automatic ROI Cropping:** Uses `CropForegroundd` to focus 100% of the spatial resolution on breast tissue, removing irrelevant thoracic signals.
35
+ - **Modality Dropout (20%):** A custom transform that randomly masks T2 or Kinetic phases during training, preventing co-adaptation and forcing the model to learn multi-modal features.
36
+ - **Focal Loss Strategy:** Implemented to address class imbalance, specifically targeting the "Benign" class detection failure observed in baseline models.
