Synergistic Foundation Models for Semi-Supervised Fetal Cardiac Ultrasound Analysis: SAM-Med2D Boundary Refinement and DINOv3 Semantic Enhancement

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2605.19799v1 Announce Type: cross We present a semi-supervised framework for joint segmentation and classification of fetal cardiac ultrasound images. Built upon the EchoCare multi-task backbone, our method integrates SAM-Med2D for boundary refinement and leverages DINOv3 to enhance pseudo-label quality. We Evaluated on the FETUS 2026 leaderboard, our method achieves a Dice Similarity Coefficient at 79.99%, Normalized Surface Distance at 61.62%, and F1-score at 41.20%, validating the effectiveness of our approach for prenatal congenital heart disease screening.
