Table 1 Overview of the categories presented to the radiologists when tasked to assess the quality of the synthetic images.
From: Denoising diffusion probabilistic models for 3D medical image generation
Option A | Option B | Option C | Option D | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Realistic image appearance | Overall not recognizable as CT/MRI | Overall unrealistic, but generally recognizable as CT/MRI | Overall realistic and only minor unrealistic areas | Can’t tell whether fake or not |
Consistency between slices | No consistent slices | Only few (up to 3) slices are consistent | Majority of slices (> 10) are consistent | All slices are consistent |
Anatomic correctness | Anatomic region not recognizable | Anatomic region recognizable, but major parts of the images exhibit anatomic incorrectness | Only minor anatomic incorrectness | Anatomic features are correct |
