AI model synthesizes medical images with controllable disease progression

Researchers have developed a new diffusion model called Disentangled Anatomy-Disease Diffusion (DADD) to synthesize longitudinal medical images. This model can generate images of ulcerative colitis progression at specific disease stages while preserving patient-specific anatomy. DADD uses a novel Feature Purifier to separate anatomical features from disease indicators and a Delta Steering mechanism for precise control over disease transitions during image generation. AI
