A Comparative Evaluation of Structural MRI Foundation Models for Age, Sex, and Body-Mass Index Predictions

2026-05-19

Abstract excerpt

Foundation models pre-trained on large neuroimaging datasets offer a promising approach to overcome the limited sample sizes typical of clinical imaging studies, yet their generalization across diverse populations remains unclear. We present the first systematic benchmark of four publicly available structural MRI foundation models: AnatCL, BrainIAC, 3D-Neuro-SimCLR, and SwinBrain. Using T1-weighted MRIs from the P...
