Disease simulation in medical images

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product provide disease simulation in synthetic projection imagery. The method obtains first medical imaging data of a first imaging type as source imaging data. A second imaging type to be generated from the source imaging data is identified. The method identifies a parameter set for the second imaging type. Second medical imaging data is modeled from the first medical imaging data based on the parameter set. A set of synthetic images is generated from the first medical imaging data based on the modeled second medical imaging data.
