Specifically, we first design a progressive feature extraction strategy that is able to extract robust 3D priors from radiographs. Then, we use the extracted prior information to guide the CT reconstruction in the latent space. Moreover, we design a homogeneous spatial codebook to improve the reconstruction quality further. The experimental results show that our proposed method achieves state-of-the-art reconstruction performance and overcomes the blurring issue. We also apply XctDiff on self-supervised pre-training task. The effectiveness indicates that it has promising additional applications in medical image analysis.
