Style-Driven Data Synthesis and Degradation-Aware Enhancement for Ultrasound Image Restoration

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

The paper proposes a two‑stage framework to improve images from low‑cost handheld ultrasound devices by mapping them to high‑quality hospital images. First, a cycle‑consistent style‑transfer model generates pixel‑aligned low‑quality/high‑quality pairs from unaligned real scans. Second, a Dual Degradation‑Guided Low‑Rank Adaptation (DDG‑LoRA) model fine‑tunes an LQ‑to‑HQ enhancement network, achieving a 16.7% FID improvement on the USenhance2023 dataset.

UltraPIPS: Improving model perception in B-mode ultrasound with foundation models

UltraPIPS introduces domain‑specific foundation models for measuring perceptual similarity in B‑mode ultrasound images. The study shows that ultrasound‑trained LPIPS backbones better correlate with downstream tasks such as classification, segmentation, and reconstruction than natural‑image or general medical models. Optimizing LPIPS loss with an ultrasound backbone yields a strong balance between reconstruction quality and realism, and the authors provide an open‑source library for these metrics.

Toward Vision Language Model-based Assessment of Clinical Quality and Usability of LGE-MR Images for Cardiac Ablation Planning

This study introduces a two‑stage vision‑language model framework to assess the clinical quality and usability of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac MRI images used for atrial fibrillation ablation planning. The first stage employs a fine‑tuned VLM to generate structured radiology‑style reports on five quality criteria—Noise, Motion Artifact, LA Boundary Accuracy, PV Region Accuracy, and Under‑segmentation Severity—while the second stage uses a GPT‑based reasoning module to convert these reports into structured quality scores and a binary decision on clinical usability. Evaluated on a curated dataset of 60 image‑slice and text‑pair annotations from 20 patients, the InternVL2 model achieved the highest criterion‑level accuracy, and DeepSeek reached perfect agreement on the clinical usability decision.
