CONFLUX: A Latent Diusion Model for 3D Chest-CT Synthesis with RL Post-Training

arXiv:2607. 02998v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Controllable generative models of 3D medical images can synthesize volumes with specified clinical attributes, but this demands samples that are simultaneously high-fidelity, natively 3D, and faithful to the requested conditioning.

Metadata-Aware Adaptation of a Generative Foundation Model for Conditional CMR Synthesis

The paper presents a method for generating cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images conditioned on patient metadata using a pretrained latent diffusion model. By encoding structured clinical data and slice position as textual prompts and applying Metadata‑Free Classifier‑Free Guidance, Contrastive Batching, and Inverse‑Frequency Sampling, the authors improve the fidelity of synthetic images, achieving a 57% reduction in Fréchet Inception Distance compared to a baseline without these strategies. Evaluation on 59,058 UK Biobank CMR scans shows better distributional realism and subgroup alignment, though disease‑specific conditioning remains challenging.

WING: A Window-Prior-Based Generative Network with Gated Inception for Cross-Modality CT Synthesis

Generating CT volumes from MRI and CBCT can improve treatment planning in adaptive radiotherapy while avoiding additional radiation exposure. However, direct regression of CT intensities is challenged by the inherently high dynamic range and long-tailed distributions, thereby averaging out sparse yet clinically important structures.

A radiographic world model for clinical reasoning and evidence generation

The paper introduces MedDream, a radiographic world model that learns a shared continuous latent state from paired chest radiograph-text observations. MedDream outperforms existing diagnostic and generative AI models across eight clinical datasets, improving diagnostic reasoning, resident concordance, and evidence generation. Targeted synthetic augmentation guided by subgroup performance gaps further enhances model performance, particularly for Asian patients.
