Diffusion models (DMs) have disrupted the image super-resolution (SR) field and further closed the gap between image quality and human perceptual preferences. They are easy to train and can produce very high-quality samples that exceed the realism of those produced by previous generative methods. Despite their promising results, they also come with new challenges that need further research: high computational demands, comparability, lack of explainability, color shifts, and more.

Article Synopsis
  • Early screening for elevated calcitonin levels and RET gene mutations in families with MEN2 significantly improves cure rates for hereditary medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) through prophylactic thyroidectomy.
  • A long-term study tracked 277 MEN2 patients post-thyroidectomy for an average of 14.4 years, revealing that 55.6% achieved long-term cures.
  • Factors influencing long-term success included younger age at surgery and lower tumor stage, indicating that timely intervention based on mutation risk is crucial for maintaining low calcitonin levels.

With the advent of Deep Learning (DL), Super-Resolution (SR) has also become a thriving research area. However, despite promising results, the field still faces challenges that require further research, e.g.

Background: (rearranged during transfection) variants are the most prevalent oncogenic events in medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). In advanced disease, multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (MKIs) cabozantinib and vandetanib are the approved standard treatment irrespective of status. The actual outcome of patients with -positive MTC treated with MKIs is ill described.
