ResDynUNet++: A nested U-Net with residual dynamic convolution blocks for dual-spectral CT
- 结合迭代法与深度网络,分知识驱动与数据驱动两阶段重建
- 在真实临床数据上实现更清晰的基物质分解图像,减少伪影
- 适合医学影像重建、双能CT研究者参考
我们提出一种融合迭代方法与深度学习模型的混合重建框架,用于双能CT(DSCT)。重建过程分为两个互补模块:知识驱动模块和数据驱动模块。在知识驱动阶段,采用斜投影修正技术(OPMT)从投影数据中快速重构基物质图像的中间解,因其收敛速度快,可高效完成基物质分解。随后,在数据驱动阶段,引入新型神经网络ResDynUNet++对中间解进行优化。该网络基于UNet++结构,将标准卷积替换为残差动态卷积块,结合动态卷积的自适应特征提取能力与残差连接的稳定训练特性,有效缓解通道不平衡与近界面大伪影问题,输出清晰准确的最终结果。在合成体模与真实临床数据集上的大量实验验证了该方法的有效性与优越性能。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We propose a hybrid reconstruction framework for dual-spectral CT (DSCT) that integrates iterative methods with deep learning models. The reconstruction process consists of two complementary components: a knowledge-driven module and a data-driven module. In the knowledge-driven phase, we employ the oblique projection modification technique (OPMT) to reconstruct an intermediate solution of the basis material images from the projection data. We select OPMT for this role because of its fast convergence, which allows it to rapidly generate an intermediate solution that successfully achieves basis material decomposition. Subsequently, in the data-driven phase, we introduce a novel neural network, ResDynUNet++, to refine this intermediate solution. The ResDynUNet++ is built upon a UNet++ backbone by replacing standard convolutions with residual dynamic convolution blocks, which combine the adaptive, input-specific feature extraction of dynamic convolution with the stable training of residual connections. This architecture is designed to address challenges like channel imbalance and near-interface large artifacts in DSCT, producing clean and accurate final solutions. Extensive experiments on both synthetic phantoms and real clinical datasets validate the efficacy and superior performance of the proposed method.
