SynthRAD2025, CBCT to CT, thorax and abdomen
Cone-beam CT of one patient's thorax or abdomen and the CT to synthesise from it, the CT brought onto the CBCT's grid by the challenge (SynthRAD2025, Task 2).

- Case. The challenge's pair as delivered, copied byte for byte from its training archive synthRAD2025_Task2_Train.zip: the CBCT, the CT the organisers registered rigidly onto its grid, and their body mask. The archive is given after registration on the challenge's site.
- Mask. The challenge's body mask: the synthetic image is scored inside it, as the challenge scores it.
- Alignment. What the organisers' registration left misaligned counts as error for every method: it decides how far a perfect synthesis can match the CT.
- Baseline. Inside the mask on the 30 test cases, at CT's range of 4095, a constant at the target's median scores an MAE of 230 (133 to 415) HU, a PSNR of 20.9 (17.7 to 23.8) dB and an SSIM of 0.24 (0.01 to 0.52). The CBCT scores 183 (92 to 335) HU, 23.9 (20.6 to 28.0) dB and 0.33 (-0.03 to 0.69), better than the constant on 21 of the 30.
- Overlap. Besides its four registration sets, only DoseRAD2026_MRCT_Syn, Task 1 MR of centre B, draws on SynthRAD2025.
- Two tasks. The provider's two tasks may hold one patient under two numbers, so each drawn CT was registered rigidly to every same-region CT of SynthRAD2025_MRCT and DoseRAD2026_MRCT_Syn: they correlate at most 0.40 inside the bodies, against 0.95 or more for one CT cropped and moved. A Task 1 and a Task 2 patient of one number are not one patient (21 pairs compared, at most 0.32).

About the data
- Test cases
- 30 test patients drawn with seed 2026 by region and centre (abdomen and thorax; A, B, C, E) in proportion, then 30 development patients, the last of the same seeded order. The pool is 494 of the 514 abdomen and thorax patients of SynthRAD2025 Task 2's training archive: SynthRAD2025_CBCTCT's 10 test and 10 development patients are held out (draw.held_out), whose CT, the target here, is that set's public fixed image.
- Truth
- target image as released the patient's CT as the challenge delivers it, registered to the CBCT by the organisers, in Hounsfield units
- Licence
- CC BY-NC 4.0 (centres A, B, C, E)
