Low-dose CT images are essential for reducing radiation exposure in cancer screening, pediatric imaging, and longitudinal monitoring protocols, but their quality is often degraded by noise from low-dose acquisition, patient motion, or…

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…

As PET imaging is accompanied by substantial radiation exposure and cancer risk, reducing radiation dose in PET scans is an important topic. However, low-count PET scans often suffer from high image noise, which can negatively impact image…

Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) reduces radiation exposure but also introduces substantial noise and structural degradation, making it difficult to suppress noise without erasing subtle anatomical details. In this paper, we present…

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…

In medical image synthesis, model training could be challenging due to the inconsistencies between images of different modalities even with the same patient, typically caused by internal status/tissue changes as different modalities are…

Radiomics is an active area of research in medical image analysis, the low reproducibility of radiomics has limited its applicability to clinical practice. This issue is especially prominent when radiomic features are calculated from noisy…

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…

Using generative adversarial network (GAN)\cite{RN90} for data enhancement of medical images is significantly helpful for many computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) tasks. A new attack called CT-GAN has emerged. It can inject or remove lung cancer…

We explore different design choices for injecting noise into generative adversarial networks (GANs) with the goal of disentangling the latent space. Instead of traditional approaches, we propose feeding multiple noise codes through separate…

Due to its noninvasive character, optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become a popular diagnostic method in clinical settings. However, the low-coherence interferometric imaging procedure is inevitably contaminated by heavy speckle…

Training computer-vision related algorithms on medical images for disease diagnosis or image segmentation is difficult due to the lack of training data, labeled samples, and privacy concerns. For this reason, a robust generative method to…

Accurate Computer-Assisted Diagnosis, relying on large-scale annotated pathological images, can alleviate the risk of overlooking the diagnosis. Unfortunately, in medical imaging, most available datasets are small/fragmented. To tackle…

Due to the widespread use of positron emission tomography (PET) in clinical practice, the potential risk of PET-associated radiation dose to patients needs to be minimized. However, with the reduction in the radiation dose, the resultant…

We tackle a challenging blind image denoising problem, in which only single distinct noisy images are available for training a denoiser, and no information about noise is known, except for it being zero-mean, additive, and independent of…

In coronary CT angiography, a series of CT images are taken at different levels of radiation dose during the examination. Although this reduces the total radiation dose, the image quality during the low-dose phases is significantly…

Deep neural networks (DNN) are commonly used to denoise and sharpen X-ray computed tomography (CT) images with the goal of reducing patient X-ray dosage while maintaining reconstruction quality. However, naive application of DNN-based…
