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.

Toward CT-Equivalent Image Quality in Low-Dose Radiotherapy Planning: Conditional Diffusion-Based CBCT-to-CT Synthesis and the Impact of CBCT Input Representation

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.

PatchDenoiser: Parameter-efficient multi-scale patch learning and fusion denoiser for Low-dose CT imaging

arXiv:2602. 21987v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Low-dose CT images are essential for reducing radiation exposure in cancer screening, pediatric imaging, and longitudinal monitoring protocols, but their quality is often degraded by noise from low-dose acquisition, patient motion, or scanner limitations, affecting both clinical interpretation and downstream analysis.
