Generation of High-resolution Lung Computed Tomography Images using Generative Adversarial Networks

To deal with the limiting data in training for new deep learning modules, we purpose a method to generate high-resolution medical images by implementing generative adversarial networks (GAN) models. Firstly, the boundary equilibrium generative adversarial networks model was used to generate the whole lung computed tomography images. Image inpainting was then integrated to generate the delicate details of the lung part by dividing into a coarse network and a refinement network to inpaint more completed and intricate details. With this method, we aim to increase the amount of high-resolution medical images for future applications in deep learning.
