DU-GAN is a generative adversarial network for LDCT denoising in medical imaging. The generator produces denoised LDCT images, and two independent branches with U-Net based discriminators perform at the image and gradient domains. The U-Net based discriminator provides both global structure and local per-pixel feedback to the generator. Furthermore, the image discriminator encourages the generator to produce photo-realistic CT images while the gradient discriminator is utilized for better edge and alleviating streak artifacts caused by photon starvation.
