Anatomy-Decomposed Chest Computed Tomography (CT) Projections as Scalable Supervision for Bone Suppression in Chest Radiographs

arXiv:2609.24937v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bone overlap can obscure abnormalities in chest radiographs, while scarce paired training data limit supervised bone suppression. We address this chall...

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.

GenDiff: A Dose and Anatomy Aware Diffusion Model with Structural Prior Refinement for Low-Dose CT Reconstruction and Generalization

arXiv:2607. 11941v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computed tomography (CT) is a critical imaging modality for clinical diagnosis, but reducing radiation dose inevitably introduces severe noise and structured artifacts that degrade image quality.

Efficient 3D Whole-Body PET Image Denoising via Conditional Rectified Flow With Optimized Sampling Strategy

The paper introduces a one‑pass conditional 3D rectified flow (3D Flow) framework for denoising whole‑body PET images, employing an optimized non‑uniform sampling strategy and a linear‑interpolant velocity‑matching objective. It reconstructs a full 3D volume in about 30 seconds, dramatically faster than multi‑hour 3D diffusion models, while maintaining high global image quality and lesion conspicuity even at ultra‑low doses (down to 1/100 of standard). Zero‑shot transfer tests on independent clinical data demonstrate robust performance across datasets and unseen dose levels.

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

arXiv:2607. 02998v2 Announce Type: replace-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.
