Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for image reconstruction and enhancement, using a computer system. One method includes acquiring a plurality of images associated with a target anatomy; determining, using a processor, one or more associations between subdivisions of localized anatomy of the target anatomy identified from the plurality of images, and local image regions identified from the plurality of images; performing an initial image reconstruction based on image acquisition information of the target anatomy; and updating the initial image reconstruction or generating a new image reconstruction based on the image acquisition information and the one or more determined associations.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method of image reconstruction and enhancement, the method comprising:
- acquiring image information associated with a target anatomy;
- determining a collection of images associated with the target anatomy;
- determining a subdivision of localized anatomy of the target anatomy, within each of the images;
- determining, using a processor, one or more associations between an image region of one of the images and a respective subdivision of localized anatomy of the one of the images;
- and
- generating an image reconstruction, an image enhancement, or a combination thereof for the target anatomy, based on the image information and the one or more determined associations.
A system for image reconstruction and enhancement, the system comprising:
- a data storage device storing instructions for image reconstruction and enhancement;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method including:
- acquiring image information associated with a target anatomy;
- determining a collection of images associated with the target anatomy;
- determining a subdivision of localized anatomy of the target anatomy, within each of the images;
- determining, using a processor, one or more associations between an image region of one of the images and a respective subdivision of localized anatomy of the one of the images;
- and
- generating an image reconstruction, an image enhancement, or a combination thereof for the target anatomy, based on the image information and the one or more determined associations.
A non-transitory computer readable medium for use on a computer system containing computer-executable programming instructions for performing a method of image reconstruction and enhancement, the method comprising:
- acquiring image information associated with a target anatomy;
- determining a collection of images associated with the target anatomy;
- determining a subdivision of localized anatomy of the target anatomy, within each of the images;
- determining, using a processor, one or more associations between an image region of one of the images and a respective subdivision of localized anatomy of the one of the images;
- and
- generating an image reconstruction, an image enhancement, or a combination thereof for the target anatomy, based on the image information and the one or more determined associations.
