Fig. 3: SAM-assisted workflow decreased the time for annotation while maintaining the quality of echocardiography image segmentation.
From: Foundation versus domain-specific models for left ventricular segmentation on cardiac ultrasound
a With SAM’s assistance, the average annotation time significantly decreased by 50%. b Among experienced annotators, the workflow decreased annotation time by 39.2%; (c) It also reduced 66.0% annotation time for an inexperienced annotator. d–f No significant difference was observed in segmentation quality when measured by the Dice Similarity Score. ***p < 0.0001.
