Generative Medical Image Anonymization Based on Latent Code Projection and Optimization
Medical image anonymization aims to protect patient privacy by removing identifying information, while preserving the data utility to solve downstream tasks. In this paper, we address the medical image anonymization problem with a two-stage solution: latent code projection and optimization. In the projection stage, we design a streamlined encoder to project input images into a latent space and propose a co-training scheme to enhance the projection process. In the optimization stage, we refine the latent code using two deep loss functions designed to address the trade-off between identity protection and data utility dedicated to medical images. Through a comprehensive set of qualitative and quantitative experiments, we showcase the effectiveness of our approach on the MIMIC-CXR chest X-ray dataset by generating anonymized synthetic images that can serve as training set for detecting lung pathologies.
