Abstract

The invention provides a TOF-PET image reconstruction method based on the compressed sensing theory. The method includes the steps that firstly, according to the flight time positioning imaging principle, a first image is reconstructed based on a data set obtained through a TOF-PET detector and an initial image through a TOF reconstruction algorithm; secondly, according to the compressed sensing theory, a sparse representation of the first image is solved with lp norm minimality as the purpose, the first image is updated according to the solution result, and then a second image is obtained; thirdly, whether a stop condition is met or not is judged, if yes, the second image is a final image, if not, the initial image is updated to be the second image, and the first step is executed again. By means of the TOF-PET image reconstruction method, given time information can be completely utilized, acquisition time is shortened, and the drug dose is reduced; meanwhile, the image signal to noise ratio can be increased, noise can be remarkably suppressed, and therefore better image quality can be acquired.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of nuclear medicine imaging, in particular to a TOF-PET image reconstruction method based on compressed sensing theory. Background technique [0002] Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a non-invasive nuclear medicine imaging diagnosis technology widely used clinically. It provides functional information such as metabolism of the living body by imaging the radioactive tracer injected into the living body. It plays an important role in diagnosis, efficacy evaluation, basic medical research and new drug development. The main principle is: inject the radioactive tracer drug marked with positron nuclide into the subject, the positron nuclide decays and emits positrons, which annihilate with the negative electrons in the subject, resulting in two directions Instead, gamma photons, each with an energy of 511KeV, are thus detected by a strip of scintillation crystals placed around the object being inspe...
