SimCBCT Generator — Synthetic CT, Pelvis

A 3D regression model that generates synthetic CT (sCT) images from Cone-Beam CT (CBCT) scans of the PELVIS region. Part of the SimCBCTGenerator framework, which was used to generate the training data for this model (aligned input/output pairs by simulating CBCT data).

The model is trained with an nnUNet regression pipeline (nnUNetTrainerRegression_mae_deep, 3D full-resolution).

Intended Use

Convert acquired CBCT images to synthetic CT for pelvis anatomy. Typical applications include adaptive radiotherapy, where sCT is needed for dose recalculation or replanning directly from CBCT without a new planning CT acquisition. It was extensively tested for Elekta machines but initial inspection also results in good performance for Varian datasets!

Model Files

File	Description
`checkpoints/model.pt`	TorchScript compiled model (~390 MB)
`checkpoints/metadata.json`	Patch size, normalization stats, inference config
`sct_generator.py`	Self-contained inference class — no nnUNet install required

The model.pt is a TorchScript module exported with torch.jit.save() and must be loaded with torch.jit.load().

Requirements

torch
scipy
numpy

Quick Start

python

import numpy as np
from sct_generator import StandaloneRegressionInference

# Load model (pass the directory containing model.pt and metadata.json)
model = StandaloneRegressionInference(
    model_path="checkpoints/",
    device="cuda"   # or "cpu"
)

# cbct_volume: 3D numpy array of HU values, shape (D, H, W)
cbct_volume = np.load("your_cbct_volume.npy")

# Run inference — returns sCT volume in HU, same spatial shape as input
sct_output = model.predict(cbct_volume)

predict() handles internally:

Z-score normalization of the CBCT input
Sliding-window tiled inference with Gaussian patch blending
Denormalization of the sCT output back to HU values with the precomputed statistics
