Automatic medical image segmentation method is highly needed to help experts in lesion segmentation. The deep learning technology emerging has profoundly driven the development of medical image segmentation. While U-Net and attention mechanisms are widely utilized in this field, the application of attention, albeit successful in natural scene image segmentation, tends to inflate the number of model parameters and neglects the potential for feature fusion between different convolutional layers. In response to these…
