SpineContextResUNet: A Computationally Efficient Residual UNet for Spine CT Segmentation

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2605.20760v1 Announce Type: new Automated segmentation of the vertebral column in Computed Tomography (CT) scans is a prerequisite for pathological assessment and surgical planning. However, state-of-the-art methods, particularly those based on Transformers or large-scale ensembles, demand substantial GPU resources, creating a barrier for clinical adoption in resource-constrained environments or on edge devices. To address this, we
