Brain Metastases Segmentation for BraTS 2026 Task 1: A Multi-Architecture Comparison

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Brain metastases are the most common intracranial malignancy, occurring in roughly 30% of patients with primary solid tumors and carrying a median survival near 5.9 months. Automated segmentation is critical for treatment planning and volumetric monitoring, but metastases are frequently small, numerous, and heterogeneous in size within a single patient. We compare a plain nnU-Net baseline, a Residual Encoder Large (ResEncL) variant, region-based training, and a Primus transformer model for BraTS-METS 2026 Task 1, using patient-grouped cross-validation to prevent leakage from the longitudinal U
