针对有限角CT重建,利用可见奇异点引导特征关联,显著提升小角度下的图像质量。

Visible Singularities Guided Correlation Network for Limited-Angle CT Reconstruction

  • 基于可见奇异点理论,聚焦图像边缘特征并建立跨区域相关性
  • 在小角度下实现PSNR提升2.45 dB,SSIM提升1.5%
  • 适合低剂量、快速扫描场景下的医学影像重建应用

有限角计算机断层成像(LACT)具有辐射剂量低、扫描时间短的优势。传统重建算法在LACT中存在固有局限。当前多数基于深度学习的方法集中于多域融合或通用先验引入,未能充分考虑LACT的核心成像特性——如伪影的方向性及结构信息的定向缺失,这源于某些方向上投影角度的缺失。受可见与不可见奇点理论启发,结合上述核心特性,本文提出可见奇异点引导相关网络(VSGC)。VSGC的设计包含两个核心步骤:首先从LACT图像中提取可见奇异边特征,并引导模型关注这些区域;其次建立可见奇异边特征与其他图像区域之间的关联。此外,采用带有各向异性约束的多尺度损失函数,促使模型在多个方面收敛。最后,在模拟与真实数据集上进行了定性和定量验证,结果表明所提方法有效可行。尤其在小角度范围内,相比其他方法,VSGC在性能上表现更优,PSNR提升2.45 dB,SSIM提升1.5%。代码已公开于https://github.com/yqx7150/VSGC。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Limited-angle computed tomography (LACT) offers the advantages of reduced radiation dose and shortened scanning time. Traditional reconstruction algorithms exhibit various inherent limitations in LACT. Currently, most deep learning-based LACT reconstruction methods focus on multi-domain fusion or the introduction of generic priors, failing to fully align with the core imaging characteristics of LACT-such as the directionality of artifacts and directional loss of structural information, which are caused by the absence of projection angles in certain directions. Inspired by the theory of visible and invisible singularities, taking into account the aforementioned core imaging characteristics of LACT, we propose a Visible Singularities Guided Correlation network for LACT reconstruction (VSGC). The design philosophy of VSGC consists of two core steps: First, extract VS edge features from LACT images and focus the model's attention on these VS. Second, establish correlations between the VS edge features and other regions of the image. Additionally, a multi-scale loss function with anisotropic constraint is employed to constrain the model to converge in multiple aspects. Finally, qualitative and quantitative validations are conducted on both simulated and real datasets to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed design. Particularly, in comparison with alternative methods, VSGC delivers more prominent performance in small angular ranges, with the PSNR improvement of 2.45 dB and the SSIM enhancement of 1.5\%. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/yqx7150/VSGC.
