EchoPilot: Training-Free Ultrasound Video Segmentation via Scale-Space Semantic Prompting and Reliability-Gated Memory 文章

arXiv:2605.25944v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ultrasound video segmentation is clinically valuable yet difficult due to speckle noise, weak boundaries, and rapid anatomical deformation. Recent promptable foundation models enable point-guided segmentation, but their direct deployment in ultrasound remains unreliable: a single point provides insufficient spatial context to resolve scale ambiguity, and greedy memory updates amplify early errors into severe temporal drift. We present EchoPilot, a training-free framework for ultrasound video segmentation under sparse first-frame interaction, requiring only a single point click and an anatomical category name. EchoPilot orchestrates a frozen medical vision-language model (VLM) for semantic localization, a vision foundation model (VFM) for dense geometric feature extraction, and a promptable video segmentor for mask prediction and propagation.
