As one of the most commonly ordered imaging tests, computed tomography (CT) scan comes with inevitable radiation exposure that increases the cancer risk to patients. However, CT image quality is directly related to radiation dose, thus it…
Increasing use of CT in modern medical practice has raised concerns over associated radiation dose. Reduction of radiation dose associated with CT can increase noise and artifacts, which can adversely affect diagnostic confidence. Denoising…
To reduce the potential radiation risk, low-dose CT has attracted much attention. However, simply lowering the radiation dose will lead to significant deterioration of the image quality. In this paper, we propose a noise reduction method…
Image denoising techniques are essential to reducing noise levels and enhancing diagnosis reliability in low-dose computed tomography (CT). Machine learning based denoising methods have shown great potential in removing the complex and…
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a critical tool for diagnosing tumors and neurological disorders but poses radiation risks to patients, particularly to sensitive populations. While reducing injected radiation dose mitigates this risk,…
In order to reduce the potential radiation risk, low-dose CT has attracted more and more attention. However, simply lowering the radiation dose will significantly degrade the imaging quality. In this paper, we propose a noise reduction…
The resurgence of deep neural networks has created an alternative pathway for low-dose computed tomography denoising by learning a nonlinear transformation function between low-dose CT (LDCT) and normal-dose CT (NDCT) image pairs. However,…
The explosive rise of the use of Computer tomography (CT) imaging in medical practice has heightened public concern over the patient's associated radiation dose. However, reducing the radiation dose leads to increased noise and artifacts,…
Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) became a clear trend in radiology with an aspiration to refrain from delivering excessive X-ray radiation to the patients. The reduction of the radiation dose decreases the risks to the patients but…
Low Dose CT Denoising research aims to reduce the risks of radiation exposure to patients. Recently researchers have used deep learning to denoise low dose CT images with promising results. However, approaches that use mean-squared-error…
Dynamic computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging is a promising approach for acute ischemic stroke diagnosis and evaluation. Hemodynamic parametric maps of cerebral parenchyma are calculated from repeated CT scans of the first pass of…

Low-dose CT denoising is a challenging task that has been studied by many researchers. Some studies have used deep neural networks to improve the quality of low-dose CT images and achieved fruitful results. In this paper, we propose a deep…
CT image denoising can be treated as an image-to-image translation task where the goal is to learn the transform between a source domain $X$ (noisy images) and a target domain $Y$ (clean images). Recently, cycle-consistent adversarial…
Low Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT) has offered tremendous benefits in radiation restricted applications, but the quantum noise as resulted by the insufficient number of photons could potentially harm the diagnostic performance. Current…
Computed tomography (CT) has played a vital role in medical diagnosis, assessment, and therapy planning, etc. In clinical practice, concerns about the increase of X-ray radiation exposure attract more and more attention. To lower the X-ray…
Microscopy images often suffer from high levels of noise, which can hinder further analysis and interpretation. Content-aware image restoration (CARE) methods have been proposed to address this issue, but they often require large amounts of…
The acquisition conditions for low-dose and high-dose CT images are usually different, so that the shifts in the CT numbers often occur. Accordingly, unsupervised deep learning-based approaches, which learn the target image distribution,…
Low-dose computed tomography (CT) has attracted a major attention in the medical imaging field, since CT-associated x-ray radiation carries health risks for patients. The reduction of CT radiation dose, however, compromises the…
Despite the indispensable role of X-ray computed tomography (CT) in diagnostic medicine field, the associated ionizing radiation is still a major concern considering that it may cause genetic and cancerous diseases. Decreasing the exposure…
