X-Splat: Gaussian Splatting for 3D CBCT Generation from Single Panoramic Radiograph

Generating a 3D dental volume from a single panoramic radiograph (PXR) could provide a low-radiation alternative to Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), but the problem is highly underdetermined: panoramic acquisition integrates 3D attenuation along curved X-ray paths into a 2D image, leaving depth-resolved anatomy unobserved. Existing implicit and generative approaches often produce oversmoothed geometry or anatomically inconsistent hallucinations, lacking geometry-driven supervision and relying on smooth representations unable to precisely localize sharp anatomical boundaries.

FaCT-GS: Fast and Scalable CT Reconstruction with Gaussian Splatting

FaCT-GS is a new framework that accelerates Gaussian Splatting (GS) for X‑ray Computed Tomography (CT) reconstruction. By optimizing voxelization and rasterization pipelines, it achieves speeds more than four times faster than the current state‑of‑the‑art GS methods on 512×512 projections and over thirteen times faster on 2k projections. The improved voxelization also allows quick fitting of Gaussians to existing volumes, providing a compressed representation or a warm‑start prior for reconstruction.

Projection-Volume Fidelity Divergence: Diagnosing and Controlling Optimization Drift in Sparse-View 3D Gaussian Tomography

Sparse-view computed tomography is a severely ill-posed inverse problem, where recent 3D Gaussian Splatting methods offer an efficient explicit representation for tomographic reconstruction. However, we find that projection-domain optimization can be misleading in this setting: the rendered projections may continue to improve while the reconstructed volume deteriorates.

Learning Where and What to Lift for Bi-planar X-ray-to-CT Reconstruction

The paper introduces LiftXR, a geometry‑guided framework that first reconstructs a 3D anatomical layout from bi‑planar X‑ray images and then uses this layout to guide CT volume reconstruction. An anatomical parser refines the layout by analyzing the reconstructed CT, enabling region‑specific intensity calibration. Experiments on two public datasets show LiftXR surpasses recent X‑ray‑to‑CT methods and improves downstream segmentation performance.

$K$-NeAS: Scalable Multi-Material CT Reconstruction Using Neural SDFs

The paper introduces $K$-NeAS, a scalable neural architecture for multi-material CT reconstruction that replaces separate material networks with a shared latent backbone and a differentiable $K$-material soft selector. It automates attenuation bounds using a Gaussian Mixture Model and adds a scheduled auxiliary floater loss to reduce geometric hallucinations in sparse-view settings. Evaluated on four clinical CBCT datasets, $K$-NeAS achieves higher 3D volumetric fidelity—up to a 1.88 dB PSNR gain over a single-material baseline—and shows improved robustness under extreme sparsity, outperforming baselines by up to 1.17 dB.
