Automatic skin lesion segmentation in terms of skin lesion analysis is very important. However, it is still a challenging task due to the irregular shapes of the skin lesion. Traditional CNN-based methods usually cannot achieve a satisfactory segmentation performance. We present a novel network with a feature enhanced Transformer for skin lesion segmentation. Unlike earlier CNN-based U-net models, our model utilizes Transformer blocks to capture global and local features, improving the performance of medical image segmentation. By incorporating feature enhancement module at every skip connection layer, we substantially enhance feature fusion capabilities and improve the efficiency of the encoderdecoder structure. In the FEM, a squeeze and excitation attention module is introduced to enhance important feature and suppress unnecessary information. The experimental results show that our proposed model demonstrated the effectiveness on PH2 dataset.
