Medical point cloud completion is important for anatomical reconstruction and downstream clinical workflows, yet generative modeling in this setting remains insufficiently studied. We investigate completion through continuous-time generative modeling and introduce PCFM, a PTv3-backed flow matching approach for medical point cloud completion.

C3VDReg is a benchmark for local-to-local colonoscopic registration that uses the Colonoscopy 3D Video Dataset (C3VD) to generate 10,015 partial-to-partial point cloud pairs, with 2,088 held‑out test pairs. Each pair consists of a source point cloud from depth reprojection and a target point cloud from CT mesh raycasting, evaluated under a standardized protocol of 8,192 points per cloud and fixed pose conventions. Experiments show that high geometric overlap does not guarantee reliable pose recovery, revealing translation ambiguity along repetitive tubular anatomy as a key failure mode.

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.
