Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the MLEM method is not able to obtain accurate reconstruction results. Due to the ill-conditioned nature of the problem, the obtained results are closely related to the number of iterations.
If the number of iterations is too low, the obtained solution is not accurate enough, which is manifested in the blurring of the entire image; if the number of iterations is too high, there will be more noise in the entire reconstructed image

Abstract

The invention discloses a dynamic PET image reconstruction method based on self-encoder image fusion. The method learns from the theory of integrated learning in machine learning, takes an MLEM algorithm as a weak classifier, obtains a strong classifier through integration of different weak classifiers, and improves the PET reconstruction effect. The method improves an existing MLEM algorithm, adopts a self-encoder structure to carry out image fusion on reconstruction results of different iterations, so that obtains an optimized reconstruction result. Compared with reconstruction methods in the prior art, the method has better reconstruction effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of PET imaging, and in particular relates to a dynamic PET image reconstruction method based on autoencoder image fusion. Background technique [0002] Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a relatively advanced clinical examination imaging technology in the field of nuclear medicine. Its basic principle is: combine some short-lived radioactive substances, such as 18 F. 11 C is marked into some necessary substances in human metabolism, such as protein, glucose, nucleic acid, etc., through the metabolism of these substances to reflect the condition of the human body and achieve the purpose of diagnosis. [0003] In the metabolic process, the decay of radioactive substances will produce positrons, and a positron will annihilate when it meets an electron after flying for a certain distance, producing a pair of photons with energy of 511KeV in opposite directions, which can be detected by high sensitivity The ...
