MedSyn: Text-guided Anatomy-aware Synthesis of High-Fidelity 3D CT Images [PDF]
This paper introduces an innovative methodology for producing high-quality 3D lung CT images guided by textual information. While diffusion-based generative models are increasingly used in medical imaging, current state-of-the-art approaches are limited to low-resolution outputs and underutilize radiology reports' abundant information.

A Fully Automated System for Sizing Nasal PAP Masks Using Facial Photographs [PDF]
We present a fully automated system for sizing nasal Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) masks. The system is comprised of a mix of HOG object detectors as well as multiple convolutional neural network stages for facial landmark detection. The models were trained using samples from the publicly available PUT and MUCT datasets while transfer learning was ...
