arXiv:2608. 08919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: During standard radiotherapy planning, repeated CT acquisitions are often required for patient registration, verification, and adaptive planning, resulting in increased cumulative X-ray dose.
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.

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.
The paper introduces Dose-Aware Cold Diffusion (DACD), a physics-consistent framework that treats radiation dose as a continuous latent variable in a cold diffusion process for low-dose CT reconstruction. DACD combines dose-aware perception, multi-scale structural priors, and dose-calibrated step allocation to guide denoising, and adds an iterative forward-backprojection correction to enforce projection-domain consistency. Experiments on Mayo-2020, Mayo-2016, and LoDoPaB-CT show DACD outperforms existing diffusion-based and physics-guided methods, especially at ultra-low doses, and generalizes robustly across continuous, unseen dose levels.
