Multi-Scale Wavelet Domain Residual Learning for Limited-Angle CT Reconstruction

4 Mar 2017  ·  Jawook Gu, Jong Chul Ye ·

Limited-angle computed tomography (CT) is often used in clinical applications such as C-arm CT for interventional imaging. However, CT images from limited angles suffers from heavy artifacts due to incomplete projection data. Existing iterative methods require extensive calculations but can not deliver satisfactory results. Based on the observation that the artifacts from limited angles have some directional property and are globally distributed, we propose a novel multi-scale wavelet domain residual learning architecture, which compensates for the artifacts. Experiments have shown that the proposed method effectively eliminates artifacts, thereby preserving edge and global structures of the image.
