Automatic and accurate echocardiography video segmentation is essential for efficient and repeatable measurements of key clinical functional indicators for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. However, it is an extremely challenging task to obtain high-quality segmentation results throughout the cardiac cycle owing to (1) the inherent speckle noise in echocardiography videos, (2) the complex dynamic motions of cardiac structures, and (3) the scarcity of annotated data. To comprehensively address these challenges, we propose a novel semi-supervised model, EchoForge, which can achieve accurate and real-time echocardiography video segmentation with very limited annotations. EchoForge introduces an Anchor Semantic Awareness (ASA) module that refines ambiguous regions using learnable anchors and propagates structural prototypes across frames to enhance boundary delineation and temporal consistency. Building upon ASA, a Continuous Pseudo-label Reforging (CPR) module progressively integrates and refines pseudo-labels via channel-wise attention, providing robust supervision. Extensive experiments on the CAMUS and EchoNet-Dynamic benchmarks demonstrate that EchoForge outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods in accuracy while maintaining real-time efficiency.
