• Abstract: In this research, we introduce an innovative method for synthesizing medical images using generative adversarial networks (GANs). Our proposed GANs method demonstrates the capability to produce realistic synthetic images even when trained on a limited quantity of real medical image data, showcasing commendable generalization prowess. To achieve this, we devised a generator and discriminator network architecture founded on deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), leveraging the adversarial training paradigm for model optimization. Through extensive experimentation across diverse medical image datasets, our method exhibits robust performance, consistently generating synthetic images that closely emulate the structural and textural attributes of authentic medical images.
