Structure-adaptive CBCT reconstruction using weighted total variation and Hessian penalties

Abstract: Abstract:The exposure of normal tissues to high radiation during cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging increases the risk of cancer and genetic defects. Statistical iterative algorithms with the total variation (TV) penalty have been widely used for low dose CBCT reconstruction, with state-of-the-art performance in suppressing noise and preserving edges. However, TV is a first-order penalty and sometimes leads to the so-called staircase effect, particularly over regions with smooth intensity transition in the reconstruc… Show more

“…This seems to be a common limitation for the second-order penalties that has been observed in a previous study of the Hessian penalty [29]. Shi et al combined TV and Hessian penalties using a local structure adaptive strategy for CBCT reconstruction [30], where the associated objective function was not convex anymore and an alternative minimization method was used for the optimization process. A similar strategy can be used in the future to combine the HS penalty family with the TV penalty for 3D CBCT reconstruction to preserve both sharp edges and regions with smooth intensity transitions.…”

“…However, like most higher-order penalties, the Hessian penalty tends to slightly blur the edges of the reconstructed image. Shi et al [30] proposed a new penalty combining the TV and Hessian penalties in a structure-adaptive way to reconstruct CBCT images without introducing extra parameters. The proposed penalty can automatically adjust the weight parameters between TV and Hessian according to local image structures to suppress the staircase effect and preserve edges simultaneously.…”

“…In Ref. [13], the authors pointed out that high-order TV's ability to preserve edges became weaker compared with first-order TV regularization and tended to smoothen edges and other small details. Thus, hybrid models that combine higher-order TV with other regularization were proposed in many literatures [13][14][15] .…”

“…However, high-order penalties can effectively reduce the piecewise-constant effect, but might also introduce additional edge blurry. Besides those methods, other methods are further investigated for low-dose CBCT reconstruction, such as the dictionary learning [51], and Hessian Schatten penalties [52,53]. In addition, based on the deep learning methods [54,55] are also used for the CBCT reconstruction, and good results have been achieved.…”
