Pretrained, Curriculum-Tuned, and Ensembled: A Tracer-Aware Interactive Segmentation Pipeline for AutoPET V
Interactive lesion segmentation in whole-body PET/CT requires a model to provide a strong initial prediction while also responding efficiently to sparse corrective scribbles during inference. This setting is particularly challenging because tracer distributions, physiological uptake patterns, lesion appearance, and acquisition characteristics differ substantially between FDG and PSMA studies. We present TRIAGE, Tracer-aware Refinement via Interactive Anatomy-Guided sEgmentation. The core backbone is a 3D STU-Net initialized through masked autoencoding pre-training with an asynchronous masking strategy, aiming to learn transferable anatomical and cross-modal representations before task-spe...
