Breast tumor is a common female physiological disease, and the malignant one of main fatal diseases women. Accurate examination assessment shape can facilitate subsequent treatment improve cure rate. With development deep learning, automatic detection systems are designed to assist doctors in diagnosis. However, blurry edges, poor visual quality, irregular shapes breast tumors pose significant challenges design highly efficient system. In addition, lack publicly available labeled data major obstacle developing accurate robust learning models for detection. To overcome aforementioned issues, we propose SRU-PMT+, pseudo-label reusing Mean-Teacher architecture based on squeeze-and-excitation residual (SE-Res) attention. We utilize proposed segmentation network, SRU-Net++, generate pseudo-labels unlabeled data, guide student model using generated groundtruth, improving accuracy robustness model. Our semi-supervised method has been rigorously evaluated dataset, i.e., Ultrasound Images (BUSI) dataset. Results show that our outperforms current methods good performance. Importantly, strategy improves performance segmentation.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in world, especially among women. tumor segmentation a key step identification and localization breast region, which has important clinical significance. Inspired by swin-transformer model with powerful global modeling ability, we propose semantic framework named Swin-Net for ultrasound images, combines Transformer Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to effectively improve accuracy segmentation. Firstly, our utilizes encoder stronger learning can extract features images more precisely. In addition, two new modules are introduced method, including feature refinement enhancement module (RLM) hierarchical multi-scale fusion (HFM), given that influence ultrasonic image acquisition methods characteristics lesions difficult capture. Among them, RLM used further refine enhance map learned transformer encoder. The HFM process high-level low-level details, so as achieve effective cross-layer fusion, suppress noise, performance. Experimental results show performs significantly better than advanced on public benchmark datasets. particular, it achieves an absolute improvement 1.4–1.8% Dice. Additionally, provide dataset test effect model, demonstrating validity method. summary, proposed makes significant advancements segmentation, providing valuable exploration research applications this domain.
