Personalized Low-Dose CT Innovation

Combining LLMs with Federated Learning for Privacy-Preserving Medical Imaging

This research introduces a novel approach that personalizes low-dose CT denoising while protecting patient privacy through federated learning enhanced by large language models.

  • Patient-specific denoising adapts to individual anatomy and scanning parameters
  • Privacy-preserving framework enables multi-institutional collaboration without sharing sensitive data
  • LLM integration leverages medical knowledge to improve image reconstruction quality
  • Personalized medicine advancement balances radiation dose reduction with diagnostic image quality

This innovation matters for healthcare by reducing patient radiation exposure while maintaining diagnostic accuracy, potentially transforming how medical imaging is conducted across institutions with varying protocols and equipment.
