MedPCFM: Improving Medical Point Cloud Completion by Integrating Point Transformers and Flow Matching

Medical point cloud completion is important for anatomical reconstruction and downstream clinical workflows, yet generative modeling in this setting remains insufficiently studied. We investigate completion through continuous-time generative modeling and introduce PCFM, a PTv3-backed flow matching approach for medical point cloud completion.

Physics-Guided Flow Matching for CT Image Reconstruction

The paper introduces a high‑resolution Rectified Flow Matching model trained on 256×256 chest CT images to serve as a generative prior for CT reconstruction. A two‑stage training strategy—initial strong anatomically informed augmentation followed by fine‑tuning—helps mitigate overfitting and improve structural fidelity. When evaluated on various CT inverse problems, Flow Matching‑based reconstruction methods outperform diffusion‑based algorithms in PSNR, SSIM, and perceptual quality while requiring fewer sampling steps.

UBone3D: Physics-Rectified Conditional Flow Matching for Anatomical 3D Shape Completion from Ultrasound

UBone3D is a new framework that completes 3D anatomical shapes from partial ultrasound point clouds using physics-rectified conditional flow matching. It models ultrasound artifacts with a simulated physics proxy and applies test-time physics rectification to guide the completion. The method combines a CT-trained generative shape prior and a physics consistency network, achieving higher reconstruction accuracy and anatomical fidelity than existing baselines.

Transformer-Guided Graph Attention for Direct Cardiac Mesh Reconstruction: A Structural Digital Twin Framework

arXiv:2606. 13188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Building patient-specific cardiac models sits at the heart of precision cardiology, yet getting those models into clinical use keeps running into the same wall: mesh generation is slow, messy, and frustrating.

MedPCFM-TED: One-Step Point Cloud Flow Matching for Implant Generation via Teacher-Guided Endpoint Distillation

The paper introduces MedPCFM‑TED, a one‑step distillation framework that uses teacher‑guided endpoint supervision and geometric matching losses to generate cranial implants from point clouds. It outperforms existing one‑step methods on the SkullBreak benchmark, remains competitive on SkullFix, and achieves a generation time of about 0.04 s per sample. The approach demonstrates that rapid, high‑quality implant generation is possible without multiple neural evaluations during inference.

RARF: Region-Aware Rectified Flows for 3D Brain MRI Inpainting

RARF is a task‑agnostic, region‑aware rectified flow framework designed for 3D brain MRI inpainting. It limits stochastic interpolation to the inpainting region while keeping observed voxels fixed, using a 3D neural network that processes a partially voided image, Gaussian noise, a mask, and a timestep. The model is trained with masked flow‑matching and reconstruction‑consistency objectives, and during inference it transports noise toward a plausible reconstruction that preserves anatomical consistency, achieving competitive results on the BraTS Inpainting Challenge 2026.

Test Time Adaptation Methods for Point Cloud Registration in Laparoscopic Surgery

The paper investigates test‑time adaptation (TTA) techniques for 3D point‑cloud registration in laparoscopic surgery, where synthetic training data must be adapted to noisy, sparse, and occluded real intraoperative reconstructions. It adapts three families of TTA methods—model, normalization, and input adaptation—to handle asymmetric shifts between preoperative meshes and intraoperative clouds, replacing classification‑based entropy objectives with correspondence‑based ones. Experiments on synthetic and real targets show that input adaptation consistently reduces registration error with low inference latency, making it the most promising approach for surgical applications.
