Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions readable and executable by a workstation (18) including at least one electronic processor (20) to perform an image reconstruction method (100) to reconstruct list mode data acquired over a frame acquisition time using a plurality of radiation detectors (17) in which the events of the list mode data is timestamped. The method includes: for the sub-frame bins of a plurality of sub-frame bins into which the frame acquisition time is divided, determining a sub-frame singles rates map for the plurality of radiation detectors from the list mode data whose time stamps reside in the sub-frame bin; determining a singles rate for the singles events of the list mode data using the sub-frame singles rates maps wherein the singles rates for the singles events are determined at a temporal resolution that is finer than the frame acquisition time; determining correction factors for the list mode data using the determined singles rates for the singles events of the list mode data; and reconstructing the list mode data of the frame acquisition time using the determined correction factors to generate a reconstructed image for the frame acquisition time.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions readable and executable by at least one electronic processor (20) to perform an image reconstruction method (100). The method includes: performing iterative image reconstruction of imaging data acquired using an image acquisition device (12); selecting an update image from a plurality of update images produced by the iterative image reconstruction; processing the selected update image to generate a hot spot artifact map; and suppressing hot spots identified by the generated hot spot artifact map in a reconstructed image output by the iterative image reconstruction.

Abstract: Iterative reconstruction (20) of imaging data is performed to generate a sequence of update images (22) terminating at a reconstructed image. During the iterative reconstruction, at least one of an update image and a parameter of the iterative reconstruction is adjusted using an adjustment process separate from the iterative reconstruction. In some embodiments using an edge-preserving regularization prior (26), the adjustment process (30) adjusts an edge preservation threshold to reduce gradient steepness above which edge preservation applies for later iterations compared with earlier iterations. In some embodiments, the adjustment process includes determining (36, 38) for each pixel, voxel, or region of a current update image whether its evolution prior to the current update image 22) satisfies an artifact feature criterion. A local noise suppression operation (40) is performed on the pixel, voxel, or region if the evolution satisfies the artifact feature criterion and is not performed otherwise.

Abstract: A system (10) and a method (100) iteratively reconstruct an image of a target volume of a subject. In each iteration of a plurality of iterations, an estimate image of the target volume (54) is forward projected (58) and compared (62) to received event data (44) to determine a discrepancy (64). The discrepancy (64) is back projected (66) and the back projection (68) updates (70) the estimate image (54). In at least one iteration, the estimate image (54) is filtered (52) in the image domain prior to being back projected.

Abstract: A medical imaging system (10) includes a magnetic resonance (MR) scanner (12), and a MR reconstruction unit (34). The MR scanner (12) applies a multi-echo ultra-short TE (UTE) with mDixon pulse sequence to a subject (16) and receives MR data (33) representing at least a portion of the subject. The MR reconstruction unit (34) reconstructs a Free Induction Decay (FID) image (120), and one or more echo magnitude images (122), one or more phase images (39), an in-phase image (39), a water image (39), and a fat image (39) from the received MR data (33).

Abstract: An image reconstruction method includes: determining singles rates of radiation detectors in a frame of imaging data detected by the radiation detectors; determining an energy correction factor (Nwgt) for each radiation detector based on an energy spectrum distribution of gamma rays incident on the radiation detector during acquisition of the frame of imaging data; determining a singles live time correction factor for each radiation detector from the singles rate and the energy correction factor; determining a system coincidence live time correction factor from the system singles rate; for each line of response (LOR) connecting pairs of radiation detectors, determining a live time correction factor for the LOR from the determined singles live time correction factors of the pair of radiation detectors connected by the LOR and the determined system coincidence live time correction factor; and reconstructing the frame of imaging data using the determined LOR live time correction factors.

Abstract: A machine learning guided image segmentation process is performed by an electronic processor (10). Image segmentation (22) is performed to generate an initial segmented representation (50) of an anatomical structure in the medical image. Parameters of a geometric shape are fitted (52) to the anatomical structure in the medical image to produce initial fitted shape parameters (54). A classification is assigned for the anatomical structure in the medical image using at least one classifier (60) operating on the initial fitted shape parameters and the initial segmented representation of the anatomical structure. A final segmented representation (72) of the anatomical structure in the medical image is generated by operations including repeating (70) the image segmentation using the classification as prior knowledge. In illustrative embodiments, the anatomical structure is a heart and the geometric shape is an ellipsoid.

Abstract: A positron emission tomography (PET) detector array includes an enclosing radiation detector array (10) comprising radiation detector elements (14, 16) effective for detecting 511 keV radiation emanating from inside the radiation detector array. The radiation detector pixels of the cylindrical radiation detector array include both higher speed radiation detector elements (14) and lower speed radiation detector elements (16). The lower speed radiation detector pixels have a temporal resolution that is coarser than a temporal resolution of the higher speed radiation detector pixels.
