Evaluating multiple combinations of models and encoders to enhance LDCT images
摘要
Computed Tomography (CT) involves harmful radiation, while Low-Dose CT (LDCT) reduces exposure but adds noise that can hinder diagnosis. To improve LDCT image quality, we fine-tuned four segmentation models with six pretrained encoders and evaluated them using PSNR and SSIM. Experiments on the Mayo Clinic dataset showed that U-Net with Inceptionv4 achieved the best performance (PSNR 48.797, SSIM 0.977), effectively reducing noise and preserving structural details.
