Abstract

Accurate segmentation of multimodal MRI brain tumor images is crucial for clinical diagnosis and prognosis assessment of brain cancer. To address the limitations of convolutional neural networks in capturing global contextual information and modeling long-range dependencies, a novel segmentation model named Polyhedron Conv-Tri-orientated Mamba (PhC-ToMamba) was proposed by integrating Mamba with a U-Net architecture. A Tri-orientated Mamba (ToM) module was embedded in the bottleneck layer to model high-dimensional global features by computing and interacting dependencies along three directions, thereby enhancing global feature representation in 3D medical images. In addition, a novel Polyhedron Convolution (PhConv) was introduced into the encoder to enlarge the receptive field and improve the extraction of critical target regions. These modules effectively enhanced global context awareness and focused attention on key tumor regions. Extensive experiments were conducted on the BraTS 2021 and MSD Task01_BrainTumor datasets. The proposed PhC-ToMamba achieved Dice scores of 95.05% / 90.46%, 94.53% / 89.91%, and 90.74% / 75.91% for whole tumor, tumor core, and enhancing tumor segmentation, respectively. Compared with state-of-the-art methods, PhC-ToMamba demonstrated superior segmentation accuracy and parameter efficiency, providing a robust solution for brain tumor segmentation and improving diagnostic precision.
