AI agents automate PET image denoising using VLM and LLM

Researchers have developed a novel multi-agent system that leverages vision-language models (VLMs) and large language models (LLMs) to automate and enhance the denoising of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) images. This framework aims to replicate expert workflows by dynamically assessing image quality and lesion status, autonomously selecting optimal denoising models and parameters, and incorporating rollback mechanisms for closed-loop feedback. Experiments on Siemens Biograph Vision Quadra PET/CT data demonstrated that the proposed system outperforms traditional methods like U-Net, GAN, and DDPM in improving PET image quality. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more automated and accurate medical imaging analysis, improving diagnostic capabilities.

    VLM- and LLM-Driven Multi-Agent System for PET Image Denoising

    arXiv:2608.13791v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging suffers from limited spatial resolution and low signal-to-noise ratio, which can compromise quantitative accuracy and lesion detectability. Deep learning-based denoising methods have demo…
