Researchers have developed CONFLUX, a novel latent diffusion model designed for generating synthetic 3D chest CT scans. This model utilizes a 3D variational autoencoder for volume compression and a rectified-flow transformer for latent space generation, conditioned on structured radiological metadata. CONFLUX demonstrates superior performance over existing volumetric baselines in terms of tri-planar Frechet distance and offers direct control over clinical attributes. An additional reinforcement learning post-training stage further enhances the reliability of generating requested findings. AI
