UGB-SegNet: Uncertainty-Guided Multi-Scale Attention and Boundary-Aware Learning for Breast Ultrasound Lesion Segmentation

Accurate breast lesion segmentation in ultrasound is difficult because speckle noise, heterogeneous lesion appearance, and poorly defined margins can obscure clinically relevant boundaries. This work presents UGB-SegNet, an uncertainty-guided breast ultrasound segmentation network that combines four components: multi-scale convolutional block attention (CBAM) at three EfficientNet-B0 encoder stages, a learnable feature pyramid network for adaptive multi-scale fusion, an entropy-guided decoder that routes fine-grained encoder information toward uncertain regions, and a boundary-aware composite
