- We present a semi-supervised framework for joint segmentation and classification of fetal cardiac ultrasound images. Built upon the EchoCare multi-task backbone, our method integrates SAM-Med2D for boundary refinement and leverages DINOv3 to enhance pseudo-label quality. We introduce view-specific hard masking along with a two-stage optimization strategy: an EMA phase to consolidate segmentation capabilities, followed by a Classification Fine-Tuning phase that freezes segmentation parameters and resets the classification head to recover classification performance without compromising segmentation gains. Evaluated on the FETUS 2026 leaderboard, our method achieves a Dice Similarity Coefficient at 79.99%, Normalized Surface Distance at 61.62%, and F1-score at 41.20%, validating the effectiveness of our approach for prenatal congenital heart disease screening.
