Description

Domain transformation-based positron emission tomography image reconstruction method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medical image processing, in particular to a reconstruction method of a positron emission tomography image based on domain transformation.
Background
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a functional imaging model and is an advanced clinical imaging technology in the field of nuclear medicine. PET can detect the activity of molecular level in tissues by specific injection of radioactive tracers and is widely applied to the fields of tumors, neurology, cardiology and the like.
However, injection of normal tracer doses poses a potential radiation risk to the patient, as gamma rays can cause ionization of the organic molecules, causing damage to the patient's body. However, the limitation of injection dosage and the limitation of acquisition time will cause the spatial resolution of positron emission imaging to be relatively poor and the noise level to be high, so that the quantitative interpretation of PET images is difficult. The high noise level of PET images can mask small but important lesions, blurring the edges of organs, further leading to diagnostic and quantitative errors. Furthermore, the image reconstruction speed is slow due to the large amount of data acquired and artifacts caused by possible movements of the patient due to the long scan time.
Therefore, the research and development of the novel low-dose PET imaging method can ensure the PET imaging quality and reduce the harmful radiation dose, and has important scientific significance and application prospect in the field of medical diagnosis.

Then, it was reconstructed using the ML-EM (Maximum likelihood-expectation maximization) algorithm. And (3) taking the image obtained in the step as priori information, and guiding the image after common electromagnetic reconstruction through GK filtering.

In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be construed as merely illustrative, and not a limitation. Thus, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.
It should be noted that: like reference numerals and letters denote like items in the following figures, and thus once an item is defined in one figure, no further discussion thereof is necessary in subsequent figures.
The embodiment of the invention provides a domain transformation-based PET image reconstruction method which can be used for reconstructing a low-dose PET image, and specifically comprises the following steps of:
step S110, reconstructing the PET image to obtain a first reconstructed image including noise.
For example, projection data subjected to only attenuation correction (ai represents an attenuation coefficient in fig. 2) is reconstructed by using an ML-EM (expectation maximization) algorithm to obtain x EM The reconstruction process is expressed as:
where y represents measured PET data (also referred to as acquired scientific data) and can be considered as a set of independent Poisson random variables; p is the system matrix; r represents background events such as random noise and scattering; n is the total number of pixels in the image.
The reconstructed image obtained in this step is marked x0 in fig. 2. The reconstructed image obtained in this way contains considerable noise, but it also contains most of the structural information of the PET image.
And step S120, the PET image is reconstructed after being filtered in a transformation domain, and a denoised second reconstructed image is obtained.
Specifically, for PET detector projection data y that obeys an independent poisson distribution, the more intractable poisson noise is first transformed into gaussian noise by an ascombe transform. The converted signal can be expressed as:
then, the transformed projection data is NLM filtered to remove gaussian noise.
Next, the filtered data is inverse transformed by ascombe to obtain y', denoted as:
finally, reconstructing the processed projection data by adopting a traditional ML-EM algorithm to obtain x TD Expressed as:
the reconstructed image obtained in this step is denoted x1 in fig. 2, which provides guidance for the next step of guided filtering, which may achieve noise suppression.
It should be understood that other types of filtering than NLM filtering, or other transform modes may be used to implement the domain transform.
And step S130, the second reconstructed image is taken as prior information, and the first reconstructed image is guided and filtered, so that a fused reconstructed image is obtained.
This step implements guided kernel filtering, e.g., a k-nearest neighbor algorithm (KNN) may be employed to construct the sparse matrix. KNN finds K similar neighbors for each pixel and normalizes the matrix to obtain normalized kernel matrix K. And then GK filtering is carried out under the guidance of the second reconstructed image, so as to obtain a final fused reconstructed image x, which is expressed as:
x=K·x EM (5)
it should be noted that other clustering algorithms may be used, such as k-means algorithm, for similar neighbors of each pixel. The image reconstruction method is not limited to the ML-EM method.
In summary, the invention solves the technical problem of improving the quality of low-dose images, and the invention transforms the noise projection data with stable variance, reconstructs the noise projection data after filtering, further uses the obtained reconstructed image as prior information, and guides the image after common electromagnetic reconstruction through GK filtering. The resulting restored image not only suppresses noise, but also retains image details.
Compared with the prior art, the image reconstruction method provided by the invention comprises two key elements. The first element is a transform domain that is denoised based on projection data. This way, taking into account the statistical properties of the projection data, the data following the poisson distribution is converted into data following the gaussian distribution, so that the original noise following the poisson distribution can be easily removed. Another element is the reconstructed pilot filtering. Although the projection domain filtering can remove noise more effectively, some details are lost, resulting in loss of details in the reconstructed image. Therefore, lost structural information is recovered through a guided filtering method, so that the image details of the denoised image are well reserved, and the structure is clearer.
