Abstract
This survey provides a thorough examination of Vision Transformer (ViT) architectures applied to medical image segmentation tasks. We review over 120 recent publications covering fundus photography, CT scan analysis, MRI brain segmentation, and histopathology slide processing. We identify key architectural innovations, benchmark datasets, and open research challenges.
