EviPrompt: A Training-Free Evidential Prompt Generation Method for Segment Anything Model in Medical Images
Medical image segmentation has immense clinical applicability but remains a challenge despite advancements in deep learning. The Segment Anything Model (SAM) exhibits potential in this field, yet the requirement for expertise intervention and the domain gap between natural and medical images poses significant obstacles. This paper introduces a novel training-free evidential prompt generation method named EviPrompt to overcome these issues. The proposed method, built on the inherent similarities within medical images, requires only a single reference image-annotation pair, making it a training-free solution that significantly reduces the need for extensive labeling and computational resources. First, to automatically generate prompts for SAM in medical images, we introduce an evidential method based on uncertainty estimation without the interaction of clinical experts. Then, we incorporate the human prior into the prompts, which is vital for alleviating the domain gap between natural and medical images and enhancing the applicability and usefulness of SAM in medical scenarios. EviPrompt represents an efficient and robust approach to medical image segmentation, with evaluations across a broad range of tasks and modalities confirming its efficacy.
