session DESCRIPTION

In medical imaging and radiation oncology, image synthesis refers to generating a target image modality from a given source modality, for example, synthetic CT images from MRI simulations for treatment planning. Synthetic images have the potential to enhance the efficiency of the clinical workflow, through bypassing an imaging procedure when the acquisition is infeasible. Advanced image synthesis techniques, such as image synthesis with deep learning or other machine learning techniques, have led to improved images and enabled a wide range of clinical applications. This symposium aims to discuss advance in image synthesis techniques and applications, including quality assurance, based on various imaging modalities.

learning objectives

  1. outline the techniques and applications of synthetic images.
  2. describe the quality assurance for image synthesis.
