Medical image inpainting holds significant importance in enhancing the quality of medical images by restoring missing areas, thereby rendering them suitable for diagnostic purposes. While several techniques have been previously proposed for medical image inpainting, they are not suitable for distorted images containing metallic implants due to their limited consideration of known shaped masking. To overcome this limitation, a novel Vectorized Box Interpolation with Arbitrary Auto-Rand Augment Masking technique has been proposed which involves scaling and vectorizing images to expand their details and generating asymmetrically shaped masking in an automatic random format.

Simple heterozygotes, that is, just C282Y, typically do not develop iron overload. Here we present a case where a simple heterozygote in combination with alcoholism developed high ferritin and high transferrin saturation levels indicative of iron overload.

The manifestation of radiation-induced behavioural degradation has not been understood well and requires further studies.
