Researchers have conducted a comprehensive evaluation of seven generative models for 3D medical image-to-image translation, comparing GANs against latent generative models across numerous datasets and anatomical regions. The study found that GANs, particularly SRGAN, generally outperformed latent models in synthesizing medical images. A key finding was that while synthetic images were largely indistinguishable from real ones in a Visual Turing test with physicians, quantitative metrics did not fully align with clinical preference, especially concerning the synthesis of small lesions and intensity values.
