Diffusion Schrödinger Bridge Models (DSBM) present a significant stride forward in the MR to CT synthesis domain, addressing the long-standing challenge caused by data misalignment and registration errors. By grounding our approach in the principles of the Schrödinger Bridge and capitalizing on the inherent structural information of MR images, we achieved not only a reduction in synthesis errors but also a notable enhancement in geometric preservation. The promising results from our DSBM approach, combined with its potential applications in on-board imaging guidance, underscore its clinical significance and set a new benchmark for future endeavors in MR-based CT synthesis.
