BrainAnytime: Anatomy-Aware Cross-Modal Pretraining for Brain Image Analysis with Arbitrary Modality Availability

Guangqian Yang, Qian Niu, Shujun Wang, Tong Ding, Wenlong Hou, Ye Du, Yue Xun

A single pretrained model analyzes brain images using whatever MRI or PET scans are available at the time.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Across four downstream tasks and five clinically motivated modality settings, BrainAnytime largely outperforms modality-specific models, missing-modality baselines, and large-scale brain MRI pretrained foundation models on most modality settings. Notably, it surpasses the strongest missing-modality baselines with relative improvements of 6.2% and 7.0% in average accuracy on CN vs. AD and CN vs. MCI classification, respectively.

C2weakest assumption

The pretraining on the five chosen datasets produces representations that generalize to arbitrary unseen modality combinations and to new patient populations without retraining or fine-tuning.

C3one line summary

A single pretrained 3D masked autoencoder handles arbitrary combinations of multi-sequence MRI and amyloid-PET for brain analysis by combining cross-modal distillation with atlas-guided curriculum masking and outperforms missing-modality baselines on Alzheimer's classification tasks.
