摘要

In medical image segmentation, CNNs and Vision Transformer often bring difficulties to in capturing lesion-sensitive details and nonlinear representations, often resulting in blurred boundaries and reduced accuracy. To overcome these limitations, we propose Cross-Scale Residual Attention Network (CSRANet), a symmetric encoder–decoder model incorporating a Transformer-style Cross-Scale Attention (CSA) block. The CSA block consists of a Cross-Scale Attention Gate (CSAG) to fuse multi-scale features with enhanced discrimination, and a Convolutional Kolmogorov–Arnold Networks (Conv KAN) module that combines static and dynamic convolutions with adaptive weighting for stable generalization. A pointwise convolution further refines features and integrates CSA outputs to improve segmentation. Experimental results, on BUSI, PH2, and DDTI datasets, show CSRANet achieves F1 scores of 80.17%, 81.06%, and 94.55%, with IoU scores of 72.12%, 70.96% and 89.96% respectively. These results prove that CSRANet effectively enhances lesion segmentation across modalities, offering improved accuracy, robustness, and generalization over existing approaches.
