Dear colleagues,

The special issue aims to shed light on the potential of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging

analysis and its diverse applications. By utilizing Generative AI models, the technology can generate synthetic

medical images that mimic real-world data. This capability opens up numerous possibilities in various areas of

medical research and practice, including disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and medical education. The

multifaceted applications of generative AI in medical imaging analysis are particularly noteworthy. For

instance, the technology can be utilized to address the issue of limited medical image datasets, which often

hinders the development of machine learning algorithms. By generating synthetic data that can be used to train

these algorithms, generative AI can help overcome this limitation and improve their accuracy. Furthermore,

generative AI can also facilitate the creation of personalized medical images that are tailored to individual

patients. This can be especially useful in treatment planning and surgical interventions, where accurate and

detailed medical images are essential. Overall, the potential of generative AI in medical imaging analysis is vast,

and its various applications are expected to revolutionize the field of medicine. As such, the technology is

poised to play a significant role in advancing medical research and improving patient outcomes.
