Multi-domain information fusion diffusion model (MDIF-DM) for limited-angle computed tomography.

Abstract

BackgroundLimited-angle Computed Tomography imaging suffers from severe artifacts in the reconstructed image due to incomplete projection data. Deep learning methods have been developed currently to address the challenges of robustness and low contrast of the limited-angle CT reconstruction with a relatively effective way.ObjectiveTo improve the low contrast of the current limited-angle CT reconstruction image, enhance the robustness of the reconstruction method and the contrast of the limited-angle image.MethodIn this paper, we proposed a limited-angle CT reconstruction method that combining the Fourier domain reweighting and wavelet domain enhancement, which fused information from different domains, thereby getting high-resolution reconstruction images.ResultsWe verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed solution through experiments, and the reconstruction results are improved compared with the state-of-the-art methods.ConclusionsThe proposed method enhances some features of the original image domain data from different domains, which is beneficial to the reasonable diffusion and restoration of diffuse detail texture features.
