Abstract
A method includes obtaining image data, selecting image datasets from the image data, creating three-dimensional (3D) matrices based on the selected image dataset, refining the 3D matrices, applying one or more matrix operations to the refined 3D matrices, selecting corresponding matrix columns from the 3D matrices, applying big data convolution algorithm to the selected corresponding matrix columns to create a two-dimensional (2D) matrix, and applying a reconstruction algorithm to create a super-resolution biomarker map image.
