SegVol: Universal and Interactive Volumetric Medical Image Segmentation

Precise image segmentation provides clinical study with meaningful and well-structured information. Despite the remarkable progress achieved in medical image segmentation, there is still an absence of foundation segmentation model that can segment a wide range of anatomical categories with easy user interaction. In this paper, we propose a universal and interactive volumetric medical image segmentation model, named SegVol. By training on 90k unlabeled Computed Tomography (CT) volumes and 6k labeled CTs, this foundation model supports the segmentation of over 200 anatomical categories using semantic and spatial prompts. Extensive experiments verify that SegVol outperforms the state of the art by a large margin on multiple segmentation benchmarks. Notably, on three challenging lesion datasets, our method achieves around 20% higher Dice score than nnU-Net. The model and data are publicly available at: https://github.com/BAAI-DCAI/SegVol.
