Objective: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides a low-dose imaging alternative to conventional CT, but suffers from noise, scatter, and artifacts that degrade image quality. Synthetic CT (sCT) aims to translate CBCT to high-quality…
Bones are always wrapped by soft tissues. As a result, bones in their X-ray images are obscured and become unclear. In this paper, we tackle this problem and propose a novel task to virtually decompose the soft tissue and bone by image…
While X-ray imaging is indispensable in medical diagnostics, it inherently carries with it those noises and limitations on resolution that mask the details necessary for diagnosis. B/W X-ray images require a careful balance between noise…
