Accurate identification of lesions is a key step in surgical planning. However, this task mainly exists two challenges: 1) Due to the complex anatomical shapes of different lesions, most segmentation methods only achieve outstanding performance for a specific structure, rather than other lesions with location differences. 2) The huge number of parameters limits existing transformer-based segmentation models. To overcome these problems, we propose a novel slight dual-path network (SDPN) to segment variable location lesions or organs with significant differences accurately. First, we design a dual-path module to integrate local with global features without obvious memory consumption. Second, a novel Multi-spectrum attention module is proposed to pay further attention to detailed information, which can automatically adapt to the variable segmentation target. Then, the compression module based on tensor ring decomposition is designed to compress convolutional and transformer structures. In the experiment, four datasets, including three benchmark datasets and a clinical dataset, are used to evaluate SDPN. Results of the experiments show that SDPN performs better than other start-of-the-art methods for brain tumor, liver tumor, endometrial tumor and cardiac segmentation. To ensure the generalizability, we train the network on Kvasir-SEG and test on CVC-ClinicDB which collected from a different institution. The quantitative analysis shows that the clinical evaluation results are consistent with the experts. Therefore, this model may be a potential candidate for the segmentation of lesions and organs segmentation with variable locations in clinical applications.
