Abstract:
The reconstruction of images from neural data can provide a unique window into the content of human perceptual representations. Although recent efforts have established the viability of this enterprise using functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) patterns, these efforts have relied on a variety of prespecified image features. Here, we take on the twofold task of deriving features directly from empirical data and of using these features for facial image reconstruction. First, we use a method akin to reverse correlation to derive visual features from functional MRI patterns elicited by a large set of homogeneous face exemplars. Then, we combine these features to reconstruct novel face images from the corresponding neural patterns. This approach allows us to estimate collections of features associated with different cortical areas as well as to successfully match image reconstructions to corresponding face exemplars. Furthermore, we establish the robustness and the utility of this approach by reconstructing images from patterns of behavioral data. From a theoretical perspective, the current results provide key insights into the nature of high-level visual representations, and from a practical perspective, these findings make possible a broad range of image-reconstruction applications via a straightforward methodological approach.

Abstract:
Reconstruction kernel is one of the parameters that affects the computed tomography (CT) image quality. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of applying three different reconstruction kernels on image quality in 3-phased CT of the liver. A total of 63 CT liver images including normal liver (n = 43) and liver lesion (n = 20) were retrospectively reviewed. Smooth (B20f), medium smooth (B30f) and medium (B40f) reconstruction kernels were employed in the image reconstruction process. Mean attenuation, image noise, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values from each kernel reconstruction were quantified and compared among those kernels using One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) statistical analysis. Significant changes in image noise and SNR were observed in the normal liver (p < 0.001, respectively) following the application of those reconstruction kernels. However, no significant changes in mean attenuation, image noise, and SNR were demonstrated in the liver lesion (p > 0.05). Application of smooth (B20f), medium smooth (B30f), and medium (B40f) kernel reconstructions would significantly affect the image noise and SNR in the normal liver of CT images instead of liver lesions. Hence, proper selection of reconstruction kernel is important in CT images reconstruction to improve precision in diagnostic CT interpretation.

Abstract:
Background: Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is a common medical condition. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is effective in assessing TMD-related bone changes, but image noise may impair diagnosis. Emerging deep learning reconstruction algorithms (DLRs) could minimize noise and improve CBCT image clarity. This study compares standard and deep learning-enhanced CBCT images for image quality in detecting osteoarthritis-related degeneration in TMJs (temporomandibular joints). This study analyzed CBCT images of patients with suspected temporomandibular joint degenerative joint disease (TMJ DJD). Methods: The DLM reconstructions were performed with ClariCT.AI software. Image quality was evaluated objectively via CNR in target areas and subjectively by two experts using a five-point scale. Both readers also assessed TMJ DJD lesions. The study involved 50 patients with a mean age of 28.29 years. Results: Objective analysis revealed a significantly better image quality in DLM reconstructions (CNR levels; p < 0.001). Subjective assessment showed high inter-reader agreement (κ = 0.805) but no significant difference in image quality between the reconstruction types (p = 0.055). Lesion counts were not significantly correlated with the reconstruction type (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The analyzed DLM reconstruction notably enhanced the objective image quality in TMJ CBCT images but did not significantly alter the subjective quality or DJD lesion diagnosis. However, the readers favored DLM images, indicating the potential for better TMD diagnosis with CBCT, meriting more study.

Abstract:
This paper describes the image enhancement of a computational integral imaging reconstruction method via reconstructing a four-dimensional (4-D) image structure. A computational reconstruction method for high-resolution three-dimensional (3-D) images is highly required in 3-D applications such as 3-D visualization and 3-D object recognition. To improve the visual quality of reconstructed images, we introduce an adjustable parameter to produce a group of 3-D images from a single elemental image array. The adjustable parameter controls overlapping in back projection with a transformation of cropping and translating elemental images. It turns out that the new parameter is an independent parameter from the reconstruction position to reconstruct a 4-D image structure with four axes of x, y, z, and k. The 4-D image structure of the proposed method provides more visual information than existing methods. Computer simulations and optical experiments are carried out to show the feasibility of the proposed method. The results indicate that our method enhances the image quality of 3-D images by providing a 4-D image structure with the adjustable parameter.

Abstract:
Recent studies have shown that deep learning achieves excellent performance in reconstructing 3D scenes from multiview images or videos. However, these reconstructions do not provide the identities of objects, and object identification is necessary for a scene to be functional in virtual reality or interactive applications. The objects in a scene reconstructed as one mesh are treated as a single object, rather than individual entities that can be interacted with or manipulated. Reconstructing an object-aware 3D scene from a single 2D image is challenging because the image conversion process from a 3D scene to a 2D image is irreversible, and the projection from 3D to 2D reduces a dimension. To alleviate the effects of dimension reduction, we proposed a module to generate depth features that can aid the 3D pose estimation of objects. Additionally, we developed a novel approach to mesh reconstruction that combines two decoders that estimate 3D shapes with different shape representations. By leveraging the principles of multitask learning, our approach demonstrated superior performance in generating complete meshes compared to methods relying solely on implicit representation-based mesh reconstruction networks (e.g., local deep implicit functions), as well as producing more accurate shapes compared to previous approaches for mesh reconstruction from single images (e.g., topology modification networks). The proposed method was evaluated on real-world datasets. The results showed that it could effectively improve the object-aware 3D scene reconstruction performance over existing methods.

Abstract:
Abstract Because the traditional social media fuzzy static image interactive three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction method has the problem of poor reconstruction completeness and long reconstruction time, the social media fuzzy static image interactive 3D reconstruction method is proposed. For preprocessing the fuzzy static image of social media, the Harris corner detection method is used to extract the feature points of the preprocessed fuzzy static image of social media. According to the extraction results, the parameter estimation algorithm of contrast divergence is used to learn the restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) network model, and the RBM network model is divided into input, output, and hidden layers. By combining the RBM-based joint dictionary learning method and a sparse representation model, an interactive 3D reconstruction of fuzzy static images in social media is achieved. Experimental results based on the CAD software show that the proposed method has a reconstruction completeness of above 95% and the reconstruction time is less than 15 s, improving the completeness and efficiency of the reconstruction, effectively reconstructing the fuzzy static images in social media, and increasing the sense of reality of social media images.

Abstract:
The recently emerging technique of sparse reconstruction has received much attention in the field of photoacoustic imaging (PAI). Compressed sensing (CS) has large potential in efficiently reconstructing high-quality PAI images with sparse sampling signal. In this article, we propose a CS-based error-tolerant regularized smooth L0 (ReSL0) algorithm for PAI image reconstruction, which has the same computational advantages as the SL0 algorithm while having a higher degree of immunity to inaccuracy caused by noise. In order to evaluate the performance of the ReSL0 algorithm, we reconstruct the simulated dataset obtained from three phantoms. In addition, a real experimental dataset from agar phantom is also used to verify the effectiveness of the ReSL0 algorithm. Compared to three L0 norm, L1 norm, and TV norm-based CS algorithms for signal recovery and image reconstruction, experiments demonstrated that the ReSL0 algorithm provides a good balance between the quality and efficiency of reconstructions. Furthermore, the PSNR of the reconstructed image calculated by the introduced method was better than the other three methods. In particular, it can notably improve reconstruction quality in the case of noisy measurement.

Abstract:
High-resolution images have a wide range of applications in image compression, remote sensing, medical imaging, public safety, and other fields. The primary objective of super-resolution reconstruction of images is to reconstruct a given low-resolution image into a corresponding high-resolution image by a specific algorithm. With the emergence and swift advancement of generative adversarial networks (GANs), image super-resolution reconstruction is experiencing a new era of progress. Unfortunately, there has been a lack of comprehensive efforts to bring together the advancements made in the field of super-resolution reconstruction using generative adversarial networks. Hence, this paper presents a comprehensive overview of the super-resolution image reconstruction technique that utilizes generative adversarial networks. Initially, we examine the operational principles of generative adversarial networks, followed by an overview of the relevant research and background information on reconstructing remote sensing images through super-resolution techniques. Next, we discuss significant research on generative adversarial networks in high-resolution image reconstruction. We cover various aspects, such as datasets, evaluation criteria, and conventional models used for image reconstruction. Subsequently, the super-resolution reconstruction models based on generative adversarial networks are categorized based on whether the kernel blurring function is recognized and utilized during training. We provide a brief overview of the utilization of generative adversarial network models in analyzing remote sensing imagery. In conclusion, we present a prospective analysis of forthcoming research directions pertaining to super-resolution reconstruction methods that rely on generative adversarial networks.

Abstract:
An interesting area of research is image reconstruction, which uses algorithms and techniques to transform a degraded image into a good one. The quality of the reconstructed image plays a vital role in the field of image processing. Compressive Sampling is an innovative and rapidly growing method for reconstructing signals. It is extensively used in image reconstruction. The literature uses a variety of matching pursuits for image reconstruction. In this paper, we propose a modified method named compressive sampling matching pursuit (CoSaMP) for image reconstruction that promises to sample sparse signals from far fewer observations than the signal’s dimension. The main advantage of CoSaMP is that it has an excellent theoretical guarantee for convergence. The proposed technique combines CoSaMP with curvelet transform for better reconstruction of image. Experiments are carried out to evaluate the proposed technique on different test images. The results indicate that qualitative and quantitative performance is better compared to existing methods.

Abstract:
A wireless capsule endoscope (WCE) is a medical device designed for the examination of the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Three-dimensional models based on WCE images can assist in diagnostics by effectively detecting pathology. These 3D models provide gastroenterologists with improved visualization, particularly in areas of specific interest. However, the constraints of WCE, such as lack of controllability, and requiring expensive equipment for operation, which is often unavailable, pose significant challenges when it comes to conducting comprehensive experiments aimed at evaluating the quality of 3D reconstruction from WCE images. In this paper, we employ a single-image-based 3D reconstruction method on an artificial colon captured with an endoscope that behaves like WCE. The shape from shading (SFS) algorithm can reconstruct the 3D shape using a single image. Therefore, it has been employed to reconstruct the 3D shapes of the colon images. The camera of the endoscope has also been subjected to comprehensive geometric and radiometric calibration. Experiments are conducted on well-defined primitive objects to assess the method’s robustness and accuracy. This evaluation involves comparing the reconstructed 3D shapes of primitives with ground truth data, quantified through measurements of root-mean-square error and maximum error. Afterward, the same methodology is applied to recover the geometry of the colon. The results demonstrate that our approach is capable of reconstructing the geometry of the colon captured with a camera with an unknown imaging pipeline and significant noise in the images. The same procedure is applied on WCE images for the purpose of 3D reconstruction. Preliminary results are subsequently generated to illustrate the applicability of our method for reconstructing 3D models from WCE images.

Abstract Objective To correct for image distortions produced by standard Fourier reconstruction techniques on low field permanent magnet MRI systems with strong $${B}_{0}$$ B 0 inhomogeneity and gradient field nonlinearities. Materials and methods Conventional image distortion correction algorithms require accurate $${\Delta B}_{0}$$ Δ B 0 maps which are not possible to acquire directly when the $${B}_{0}$$ B 0 inhomogeneities also produce significant image distortions. Here we use a readout gradient time-shift in a TSE sequence to encode the $${B}_{0}$$ B 0 field inhomogeneities in the k-space signals. Using a non-shifted and a shifted acquisition as input, $$\Delta {B}_{0}$$ Δ B 0 maps and images were reconstructed in an iterative manner. In each iteration, $$\Delta {B}_{0}$$ Δ B 0 maps were reconstructed from the phase difference using Tikhonov regularization, while images were reconstructed using either conjugate phase reconstruction (CPR) or model-based (MB) image reconstruction, taking the reconstructed field map into account. MB reconstructions were, furthermore, combined with compressed sensing (CS) to show the flexibility of this approach towards undersampling. These methods were compared to the standard fast Fourier transform (FFT) image reconstruction approach in simulations and measurements. Distortions due to gradient nonlinearities were corrected in CPR and MB using simulated gradient maps. Results Simulation results show that for moderate field inhomogeneities and gradient nonlinearities, $$\Delta {B}_{0}$$ Δ B 0 maps and images reconstructed using iterative CPR result in comparable quality to that for iterative MB reconstructions. However, for stronger inhomogeneities, iterative MB reconstruction outperforms iterative CPR in terms of signal intensity correction. Combining MB with CS, similar image and $$\Delta {B}_{0}$$ Δ B 0 map quality can be obtained without a scan time penalty. These findings were confirmed by experimental results. Discussion In case of $${B}_{0}$$ B 0 inhomogeneities in the order of kHz, iterative MB reconstructions can help to improve both image quality and $$\Delta {B}_{0}$$ Δ B 0 map estimation.

Abstract:
Fourier single pixel imaging (FSPI) is well known for reconstructing high quality images but only at the cost of long imaging time. For real-time applications, FSPI relies on under-sampled reconstructions, failing to provide high quality images. In order to improve imaging quality of real-time FSPI, a fast image reconstruction framework based on deep learning (DL) is proposed. More specifically, a deep convolutional autoencoder network with symmetric skip connection architecture for real time 96 × 96 imaging at very low sampling rates (5–8%) is employed. The network is trained on a large image set and is able to reconstruct diverse images unseen during training. The promising experimental results show that the proposed FSPI coupled with DL (termed DL-FSPI) outperforms conventional FSPI in terms of image quality at very low sampling rates.

Full text
Abstract:
Achieving high-quality reconstructions of images is the focus of research in image compressed sensing. Group sparse representation improves the quality of reconstructed images by exploiting the non-local similarity of images; however, block-matching and dictionary learning in the image group construction process leads to a long reconstruction time and artifacts in the reconstructed images. To solve the above problems, a joint regularized image reconstruction model based on group sparse representation (GSR-JR) is proposed. A group sparse coefficients regularization term ensures the sparsity of the group coefficients and reduces the complexity of the model. The group sparse residual regularization term introduces the prior information of the image to improve the quality of the reconstructed image. The alternating direction multiplier method and iterative thresholding algorithm are applied to solve the optimization problem. Simulation experiments confirm that the optimized GSR-JR model is superior to other advanced image reconstruction models in reconstructed image quality and visual effects. When the sensing rate is 0.1, compared to the group sparse residual constraint with a nonlocal prior (GSRC-NLR) model, the gain of the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) is up to 4.86 dB and 0.1189, respectively.

Abstract:
Conventionally, the inverse problem of gated cardiac SPECT is solved by reconstructing the images frame-by-frame, ignoring the inter-frame correlation along the time dimension. To compensate for the non-uniform attenuation for quantitative cardiac imaging, iterative image reconstruction has been a choice which could utilize a priori constraint on the inter-frame correlation for a penalized maximum likelihood (ML) solution. However, iterative image reconstruction in the 4D space involves intensive computations. In this paper, an efficient method for 4D gated SPECT reconstruction is developed based on Karhune-Loève (KL) transform and Novikov's inverse formula. The temporal KL transform is first applied on the data sequence to de-correlate the inter-frame correlation and then the 3D principal components in the KL domain are reconstructed frame-by-frame using Novikov's inverse formula with non-uniform attenuation compensation. Finally an inverse KL transform is performed to obtain quantitatively-reconstructed 4D images in the original space. With the proposed method, 4D reconstruction can be achieved at a reasonable computational cost. The results from computer simulations are very encouraging as compared to conventional frame-by-frame filtered back-projection and iterative ordered-subsets ML reconstructions. By discarding high-order KL components for further noise reduction, the computation time could be further reduced.

Abstract:
Real-time positron emission tomography (PET) may provide information from first-shot images, enable PET-guided biopsies, and allow awake animal studies. Fully-3D iterative reconstructions yield the best images in PET, but they are too slow for real-time imaging. Analytical methods such as Fourier back projection (FBP) are very fast, but yield images of poor quality with artifacts due to noise or data incompleteness. In this work, an image reconstruction based on the pseudoinverse of the system response matrix (SRM) is presented. w. To implement the pseudoinverse method, the reconstruction problem is separated into two stages. First, the axial part of the SRM is pseudo-inverted (PINV) to rebin the 3D data into 2D datasets. Then, the resulting 2D slices can be reconstructed with analytical methods or by applying the pseudoinverse algorithm again. The proposed two-step PINV reconstruction yielded good-quality images at a rate of several frames per second, compatible with real time applications. Furthermore, extremely fast direct PINV reconstruction of projections of the 3D image collapsed along specific directions can be implemented.

Abstract This study investigates the dose and time limits of adaptive 4DCBCT acquisitions (adaptive-acquisition) compared with current conventional 4DCBCT acquisition (conventional-acquisition). We investigate adaptive-acquisitions as low as 60 projections (∼25 s scan, 6 projections per respiratory phase) in conjunction with emerging image reconstruction methods. 4DCBCT images from 20 patients recruited into the adaptive CT acquisition for personalized thoracic imaging clinical study (NCT04070586) were resampled to simulate faster and lower imaging dose acquisitions. All acquisitions were reconstructed using Feldkamp–Davis–Kress (FDK), McKinnon–Bates (MKB), motion compensated FDK (MCFDK), motion compensated MKB (MCMKB) and simultaneous motion estimation and image reconstruction (SMEIR) algorithms. All reconstructions were compared against conventional-acquisition 4DFDK-reconstruction using Structural SIMilarity Index (SSIM), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise-ratio (CNR), tissue interface sharpness diaphragm (TIS-D), tissue interface sharpness tumor (TIS-T) and center of mass trajectory (COMT) for difference in diaphragm and tumor motion. All reconstruction methods using 110-projection adaptive-acquisition (11 projections per respiratory phase) had a SSIM of greater than 0.92 relative to conventional-acquisition 4DFDK-reconstruction. Relative to conventional-acquisition 4DFDK-reconstruction, 110-projection adaptive-acquisition MCFDK-reconstructions images had 60% higher SNR, 10% higher CNR, 30% higher TIS-T and 45% higher TIS-D on average. The 110-projection adaptive-acquisition SMEIR-reconstruction images had 123% higher SNR, 90% higher CNR, 96% higher TIS-T and 60% higher TIS-D on average. The difference in diaphragm and tumor motion compared to conventional-acquisition 4DFDK-reconstruction was within submillimeter accuracy for all acquisition reconstruction methods. Adaptive-acquisitions resulted in faster scans with lower imaging dose and equivalent or improved image quality compared to conventional-acquisition. Adaptive-acquisition with motion compensated-reconstruction enabled scans with as low as 110 projections to deliver acceptable image quality. This translates into 92% lower imaging dose and 80% less scan time than conventional-acquisition.

Abstract:
Digital reconstruction of neurons is a critical step in studying neuronal morphology and exploring the working mechanism of the brain. In recent years, the focus of neuronal morphology reconstruction has gradually shifted from single neurons to multiple neurons in a whole brain. Microscopic images of a whole brain often have low signal-to-noise-ratio, discontinuous neuron fragments or weak neuron signals. It is very difficult to segment neuronal signals from the background of these images, which is the first step of most automatic reconstruction algorithms. In this study, we propose a Nested U-Net based Ultra-Tracer model (NUNU-Tracer) for better multiple neurons image segmentation and morphology reconstruction. The NUNU-Tracer utilizes nested U-Net (UNet++) deep network to segment 3D neuron images, reconstructs neuron morphologies under the framework of the Ultra-Tracer and prunes branches of noncurrent tracing neurons. The 3D UNet++ takes a 3D microscopic image as its input, and uses scale-space distance transform and linear fusion strategy to generate the segmentation maps for voxels in the image. It is capable of removing noise, repairing broken neurite patterns and enhancing neuronal signals. We evaluate the performance of the 3D UNet++ for image segmentation and NUNU-Tracer for neuron morphology reconstruction on image blocks and neurons, respectively. Experimental results show that they significantly improve the accuracy and length of neuron reconstructions.

ABSTRACT We present the time lag/delay reconstructor (TLDR), an algorithm for reconstructing velocity delay maps in the maximum a posteriori framework for reverberation mapping. Reverberation mapping is a tomographical method for studying the kinematics and geometry of the broad-line region of active galactic nuclei at high spatial resolution. Leveraging modern image reconstruction techniques, including total variation and compressed sensing, TLDR applies multiple regularization schemes to reconstruct velocity delay maps using the alternating direction method of multipliers. Along with the detailed description of the TLDR algorithm we present test reconstructions from TLDR applied to synthetic reverberation mapping spectra as well as a preliminary reconstruction of the Hβ feature of Arp 151 from the 2008 Lick Active Galactic Nuclei Monitoring Project.

Abstract:
Background: Iterative Reconstruction (IR) method was first applied to CT in 1960 and successfully used for the first time in clinical research by reconstructing 128 x 128 images according to image metrics and using high-resolution images of 512 x 512 for special research activities such as image evaluation. artifacts and noise. In 2008, the development of IR can improve image quality and reduce the amount of radiation in clinical CT diagnosis. Iterative reconstruction promises to improve image quality while reducing radiation dose. This has been demonstrated in CT of the thorax, coronary arteries, abdomen, spine and neck, paranasal sinuses, and head. Sinogram-Afirmed Iterative Reconstruction (SAFIRE) is one of the iterative algorithm reconstruction methods that uses noise modeling techniques, Sinogram-Afirmed Iterative Reconstruction (SAFIRE), promises to improve Cranial CT (CCT). In this new technique, raw data-based iteration for artifact reduction is combined with image-based iteration using smooth regularization that estimates the variance of image noise in various directions at each image pixel and adjusts it with a spatial variance regularization function simultaneously. Methods: This study is a literature review, where literature exploration is carried out on various databases with keywords such as, Reference sources used in compiling this article include google scollar, as well as articles in English and Indonesian scientific journals.

Abstract:
Abstract Context.—Routine microscopy provides only a 2-dimensional view of the complex 3-dimensional structure that makes up human tissue. Three-dimensional microscopic image reconstruction has not been described previously for prostate cancer. Objectives.—To develop a simple method of computerized 3-dimensional image reconstruction and to demonstrate its applicability to the study of prostatic adenocarcinoma. Methods.—Serial sections were cut from archival paraffin-embedded prostate specimens, immunostained using antikeratin CAM5.2, and digitally imaged. Computer image–rendering software was used to produce 3-dimensional image reconstructions of prostate cancer of varying Gleason grades, normal prostate, and prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia. Results.—The rendering system proved easy to use and provided good-quality 3-dimensional images of most specimens. Normal prostate glands formed irregular fusiform structures branching off central tubular ducts. Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia showed external contours similar to those of normal glands, but with a markedly complex internal arrangement of branching lumens. Gleason grade 3 carcinoma was found to consist of a complex array of interconnecting tubules rather than the apparently separate glands seen in 2 dimensions on routine light microscopy. Gleason grade 4 carcinoma demonstrated a characteristic form of glandular fusion that was readily visualized by optically sectioning and rotating the reconstructed images. Conclusions.—Computerized 3-dimensional microscopic imaging holds great promise as an investigational tool. By revealing the structural relationships of the various Gleason grades of prostate cancer, this method could be used to refine diagnostic and grading criteria for this common tumor.

Deep learning compresses medical image processing in IoMT. CS-MRI acquires quickly. It has various medicinal uses due to its advantages. This lowers motion artifacts and contrast washout. Reduces patient pressure and scanning costs. CS-MRI avoids the Nyquist-Shannon sampling barrier. Parallel imagingbased fast MRI uses many coils to reconstruct MRI images with less raw data. Parallel imaging enables rapid MRI. This research developed a deep learning-based method for reconstructing CS-MRI images that bridges the gap between typical non-learning algorithms that employ data from a single image and enormous training datasets. Conventional approaches only reconstruct CS-MRI data from one picture. Reconstructing CS-MRI images. CS-GAN is recommended for CS-MRI reconstruction. For success. Refinement learning stabilizes our C-GAN-based generator, which eliminates aliasing artifacts. This improved newly produced data. Product quality increased. Adversarial and information loss recreated the picture. We should protect the image’s texture and edges. Picture and frequency domain data establish consistency. We want frequency and picture domain information to match. It offers visual domain data. Traditional CS-MRI reconstruction and deep learning were used in our broad comparison research. C-GAN enhances reconstruction while conserving perceptual visual information. MRI image reconstruction takes 5 milliseconds, allowing real-time analysis.

Abstract:
Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of high-dynamic-range (HDR) surfaces plays an important role in the fields of computer vision and image processing. Traditional 3D measurement methods often face the risk of information loss when dealing with surfaces that have HDR characteristics. To address this issue, this paper proposes a simple 3D reconstruction method, which combines the features of non-overexposed regions in polarized and unpolarized images to improve the reconstruction quality of HDR surface objects. The optimum fringe regions are extracted from images with different polarization angles, and the non-overexposed regions in normally captured unpolarized images typically contain complete fringe information and are less affected by specular highlights. The optimal fringe information from different polarized image groups is gradually used to replace the incorrect fringe information in the unpolarized image, resulting in a complete set of fringe data. Experimental results show that the proposed method requires only 24~36 images and simple phase fusion to achieve successful 3D reconstruction. It can effectively mitigate the negative impact of overexposed regions on absolute phase calculation and 3D reconstruction when reconstructing objects with strongly reflective surfaces.

Abstract:
An important part of any computed tomography (CT) system is the reconstruction method, which transforms the measured data into images. Reconstruction methods for CT can be either analytical or iterative. The analytical methods can be exact, by exact projector inversion, or non-exact based on Back projection (BP). The BP methods are attractive because of thier simplicity and low computational cost. But they produce suboptimal images with respect to artifacts, resolution, and noise. This paper deals with improve of the image quality of BP by using super-resolution technique. Super-resolution can be beneficial in improving the image quality of many medical imaging systems without the need for significant hardware alternation. In this paper, we propose to reconstruct a high-resolution image from the measured signals in Sinogram space instead of reconstructing low-resolution images and then post-process these images to get higher resolution image.

Abstract. Event cameras offer significant advantages over traditional cameras, including high temporal resolution, high dynamic range, and low power consumption. However, reconstructing images from the asynchronous events generated by these cameras presents unique challenges. This paper investigates the optimal number of events needed for high-quality image reconstruction using event cameras. We evaluate two primary reconstruction strategies—fixed time window and fixed number of events—across various dynamic and static scenes. Our study includes scenarios with different lighting conditions and camera movements. Using the state-of-the-art E2VID algorithm, we perform both qualitative and quantitative analyses of the reconstructed images, comparing them with reference frames from a traditional RGB camera. Our results demonstrate the trade-offs between temporal resolution and image quality for each reconstruction strategy, providing insights into the optimal settings for different applications. This research offers practical guidelines for selecting appropriate reconstruction parameters to achieve the better image quality from event cameras.

This paper describes three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction processes introducing an image selection method to efficiently generate a 3D model from an image sequence. To obtain suitable images for efficient 3D reconstruction, we applied the image selection method to remove redundant images in an image sequence. The proposed method can select suitable images from an image sequence based on optical flow measures and a fixed threshold. As a result, it can reduce the computational cost for 3D reconstruction processes based on the image sequence acquired by a camera. We confirmed that the computational cost of 3D reconstruction processes can be reduced while maintaining the 3D reconstruction accuracy at a constant level.

Abstract:
Photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCD-CT) yields improved spatial resolution. The combined use of PCD-CT and a modern iterative reconstruction method, known as quantum iterative reconstruction (QIR), has the potential to significantly improve the quality of lung CT images. In this study, we aimed to analyze the impacts of different slice thicknesses and QIR levels on low-dose ultra-high-resolution (UHR) PCD-CT imaging of the lungs. Our study included 51 patients with different lung diseases who underwent unenhanced UHR-PCD-CT scans. Images were reconstructed using three different slice thicknesses (0.2, 0.4, and 1.0 mm) and three QIR levels (2–4). Noise levels were determined in all reconstructions. Three raters evaluated the delineation of anatomical structures and conspicuity of various pulmonary pathologies in the images compared to the clinical reference reconstruction (1.0 mm, QIR-3). The highest QIR level (QIR-4) yielded the best image quality. Reducing the slice thickness to 0.4 mm improved the delineation and conspicuity of pathologies. The 0.2 mm reconstructions exhibited lower image quality due to high image noise. In conclusion, the optimal reconstruction protocol for low-dose UHR-PCD-CT of the lungs includes a slice thickness of 0.4 mm, with the highest QIR level. This optimized protocol might improve the diagnostic accuracy and confidence of lung imaging.

Abstract:
Existing methods have problems such as loss of details and insufficient reconstruction effect when processing complex images. To improve the quality and efficiency of image super-resolution reconstruction, this study proposes an improved algorithm based on super-resolution generative adversarial network and Swin Transformer. Firstly, on the ground of the traditional super-resolution generative adversarial network, combined with the global feature extraction capability of Swin Transformer, the model’s capacity to capture multi-scale features and restore details is enhanced. Subsequently, by utilizing adversarial loss and perceptual loss to further optimize the training process, the image’s visual quality is improved. The results show that the optimization algorithm had high PSNR and structural similarity index values in multiple benchmark test datasets, with the highest reaching 43.81 and 0.94, respectively, which are significantly better than the comparison algorithm. In practical applications, this algorithm demonstrated higher reconstruction accuracy and efficiency when reconstructing images with complex textures and rich edge details. The highest reconstruction accuracy could reach 98.03%, and the reconstruction time was as low as 0.2 s or less. In summary, this model can greatly improve the visual quality of image super-resolution reconstruction, better restore details, reduce detail loss, and provide an efficient and reliable solution for image super-resolution reconstruction tasks.

Abstract:
To address the fuzzy reconstruction effect on distant objects in unbounded scenes and the difficulty in feature matching caused by the thin structure of power lines in images, this paper proposes a novel image-based method for the reconstruction of power transmission lines (PTLs). The dataset used in this paper comprises PTL progressive motion sequence datasets, constructed by a visual acquisition system carried by a developed Flying–walking Power Line Inspection Robot (FPLIR). This system captures close-distance and continuous images of power lines. The study introduces PL-NeRF, that is, an enhanced method based on the Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) method for reconstructing PTLs. The highlights of PL-NeRF include (1) compressing the unbounded scene of PTLs by exploiting the spatial compression of normal L∞; (2) encoding the direction and position of the sample points through Integrated Position Encoding (IPE) and Hash Encoding (HE), respectively. Compared to existing methods, the proposed method demonstrates good performance in 3D reconstruction, with fidelity indicators of PSNR = 29, SSIM = 0.871, and LPIPS = 0.087. Experimental results highlight that the combination of PL-NeRF with progressive motion sequence images ensures the integrity and continuity of PTLs, improving the efficiency and accuracy of image-based reconstructions. In the future, this method could be widely applied for efficient and accurate 3D reconstruction and inspection of PTLs, providing a strong foundation for automated monitoring of transmission corridors and digital power engineering.

Abstract:
Abstract The sparse interferometric coverage of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) poses a significant challenge for both reconstruction and model fitting of black hole images. PRIMO is a new principal components analysis-based algorithm for image reconstruction that uses the results of high-fidelity general relativistic, magnetohydrodynamic simulations of low-luminosity accretion flows as a training set. This allows the reconstruction of images that are consistent with the interferometric data and that live in the space of images that is spanned by the simulations. PRIMO follows Monte Carlo Markov Chains to fit a linear combination of principal components derived from an ensemble of simulated images to interferometric data. We show that PRIMO can efficiently and accurately reconstruct synthetic EHT data sets for several simulated images, even when the simulation parameters are significantly different from those of the image ensemble that was used to generate the principal components. The resulting reconstructions achieve resolution that is consistent with the performance of the array and do not introduce significant biases in image features such as the diameter of the ring of emission.

Abstract:
This study evaluated the feasibility of deep-learning-based image reconstruction (DLIR) on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). By using a 20 cm water phantom, the noise reduction ratio and noise power spectrum were evaluated according to the different reconstruction methods. Then 46 patients who underwent CCTA were retrospectively enrolled. CCTA was performed using the 16 cm coverage axial volume scan technique. All CT images were reconstructed using filtered back projection (FBP); three model-based iterative reconstructions (MBIR) of 40%, 60%, and 80%; and three DLIR algorithms: low (L), medium (M), and high (H). Quantitative and qualitative image qualities of CCTA were compared according to the reconstruction methods. In the phantom study, the noise reduction ratios of MBIR-40%, MBIR-60%, MBIR-80%, DLIR-L, DLIR-M, and DLIR-H were 26.7 ± 0.2%, 39.5 ± 0.5%, 51.7 ± 0.4%, 33.1 ± 0.8%, 43.2 ± 0.8%, and 53.5 ± 0.1%, respectively. The pattern of the noise power spectrum of the DLIR images was more similar to FBP images than MBIR images. In a CCTA study, CCTA yielded a significantly lower noise index with DLIR-H reconstruction than with the other reconstruction methods. DLIR-H showed a higher SNR and CNR than MBIR (p < 0.05). The qualitative image quality of CCTA with DLIR-H was significantly higher than that of MBIR-80% or FBP. The DLIR algorithm was feasible and yielded a better image quality than the FBP or MBIR algorithms on CCTA.

Abstract:
Over the last few decades, the need to reduce and optimize patient medical radiation exposure has prompted the introduction of novel reconstruction algorithms in computed tomography (CT). Against this backdrop, the present study aimed to assess whether reduced radiation dose CT images reconstructed with the new-generation adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASiR-V) maintain the same image quality as that of routine image reconstruction. In addition, the optimization of image quality parameters for the ASiR-V algorithm (e.g., an optimal combination of blending percentage and noise index (NI)) was investigated. An abdominal reference phantom was imaged using the routine clinical protocol (fixed noise index of 18 and 40% ASiR reconstruction). Reduced radiation dose CT scans were performed with varying NI (22, 24, and 30) and using the ASiR-V reconstruction algorithm. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of image noise, contrast, and resolution were performed against NI and reconstruction blending percentages. Our results confirm the ability of the ASiR-V algorithm to provide images of high diagnostic quality while reducing the patient dose. All the parameters were improved in ASiR-V images as compared to ASiR. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses showed that the best agreement was obtained for the images reconstructed using ASiR-V with NI24 and a high percentage of blending (70–100%). This preliminary study results show that ASiR-V allows for a significant reduction in patient dose (about 40%) while maintaining a good overall image quality when appropriate NI (i.e., 24) is used.

Abstract:
The principle of image super-resolution reconstruction (SR) is to pass one or more low-resolution (LR) images through information processing technology to obtain the final high-resolution (HR) image. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have achieved better results than traditional methods in the process of an image super-resolution reconstruction. However, if the number of neural network layers is increased blindly, it will cause a significant increase in the amount of calculation, increase the difficulty of training the network, and cause the loss of image details. Therefore, in this paper, we use a novel and effective image super-resolution reconstruction technique via fast global and local residual learning model (FGRLR). The principle is to directly train a low-resolution small image on a neural network without enlarging it. This will effectively reduce the amount of calculation. In addition, the stacked local residual block (LRB) structure is used for non-linear mapping, which can effectively overcome the problem of image degradation. After extracting features, use 1 × 1 convolution to perform dimensional compression, and expand the dimensions after non-linear mapping, which can reduce the calculation amount of the model. In the reconstruction layer, deconvolution is used to enlarge the image to the required size. This also reduces the number of parameters. We use skip connections to use low-resolution information for reconstructing high-resolution images. Experimental results show that the algorithm can effectively shorten the running time without affecting the quality of image restoration.

Abstract:
This study focuses on reconstructing accurate meshes with high-resolution textures from single images. The reconstruction process involves two networks: a mesh-reconstruction network and a texture-reconstruction network. The mesh-reconstruction network estimates a deformation map, which is used to deform a template mesh to the shape of the target object in the input image, and a low-resolution texture. We propose reconstructing a mesh with a high-resolution texture by enhancing the low-resolution texture through use of the super-resolution method. The architecture of the texture-reconstruction network is like that of a generative adversarial network comprising a generator and a discriminator. During the training of the texture-reconstruction network, the discriminator must focus on learning high-quality texture predictions and to ignore the difference between the generated mesh and the actual mesh. To achieve this objective, we used meshes reconstructed using the mesh-reconstruction network and textures generated through inverse rendering to generate pseudo-ground-truth images. We conducted experiments using the 3D-Future dataset, and the results prove that our proposed approach can be used to generate improved three-dimensional (3D) textured meshes compared to existing methods, both quantitatively and qualitatively. Additionally, through our proposed approach, the texture of the output image is significantly improved.

Abstract Background The use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for dose calculation in adaptive radiotherapy has been investigated in many studies. Proper acquisition and reconstruction of preset parameters could improve the accuracy of dose calculation based on CBCT images. This study evaluated the impact of the modified image acquisition and preset reconstruction parameter available in X-Ray Volumetric Imaging (XVI) to improve CBCT image quality and dose calculation accuracy. Materials and methods Calibration curves were generated by scanning the CIRS phantom using CBCT XVI Elekta 5.0.4 and Computed Tomography (CT) Simulator Somatom, which served as CT image reference. Rando and Catphan 503 phantoms were scanned with various acquisition and reconstruction parameters for dose accuracy and image quality tests. The image quality test is uniformity, low contrast visibility, spatial resolution, and geometrical scale test for each image by following the XVI image quality test module. Results Acquisition and reconstruction parameters have an impact on the Hounsfield Unit (HU) value that is used as the HU-Relative Electron Density (RED) calibration curve. The dose difference for all the calibration curves was within 1% and passed the gamma passing rate. Images acquired using 120 kVp, F1 (with Bowtie Filter), and 50 mA (F1-120-50-10) scored the highest Gamma Index (GI) of 98.5%. For the image quality test, it scored 1.20% on the uniformity test, 2.14% on the low contrast visibility test, and 11 lp/cm on the spatial resolution test. However, F1-120-50-10 reconstructed with different reconstructions scored 3.83% and 4 lp/cm in contrast and spatial resolution test, respectively. Conclusion CBCT reconstruction parameters work as a scatter correction. It could improve the dose accuracy and image quality. Nevertheless, without adequate CBCT acquisition protocols, it would produce an image with high uncertainty and cannot be fixed with reconstruction protocols. The F1-120-50-10 protocols generate the highest dose accuracy and image quality.

Abstract. Image-based 3D reconstruction processing tools assume sharp focus across the entire object being imaged, but depth of field (DOF) can be a limitation when imaging small to medium sized objects resulting in variation in image sharpness with range from the camera. While DOF is well understood in the context of photographic imaging and it is considered with the acquisition for image-based 3D reconstruction, an “acceptable” level of sharpness and associated “circle of confusion” has not yet been quantified for the 3D case. The work described in this paper contributes to the understanding and quantification of acceptable sharpness by providing evidence of the influence of DOF on the 3D reconstruction of small to medium sized museum objects. Spatial frequency analysis using established collections photography imaging guidelines and targets is used to connect input image quality with 3D reconstruction output quality. Combining quantitative spatial frequency analysis with metrics from a series of comparative 3D reconstructions provides insights into the connection between DOF and output model quality. Lab-based quantification of DOF is used to investigate the influence of sharpness on the output 3D reconstruction to better understand the effects of lens aperture, camera to object surface angle, and taking distance. The outcome provides evidence of the role of DOF in image-based 3D reconstruction and it is briefly presented how masks derived from image content and depth maps can be used to remove unsharp image content and optimise structure from motion (SfM) and multiview stereo (MVS) workflows.

Abstract:
Hyperspectral imaging is a promising imaging modality that simultaneously captures several images for the same scene on narrow spectral bands, and it has made considerable progress in different fields, such as agriculture, astronomy, and surveillance. However, the existing hyperspectral (HS) cameras sacrifice the spatial resolution for providing the detail spectral distribution of the imaged scene, which leads to low-resolution (LR) HS images compared with the common red-green-blue (RGB) images. Generating a high-resolution HS (HR-HS) image via fusing an observed LR-HS image with the corresponding HR-RGB image has been actively studied. Existing methods for this fusing task generally investigate hand-crafted priors to model the inherent structure of the latent HR-HS image, and they employ optimization approaches for solving it. However, proper priors for different scenes can possibly be diverse, and to figure it out for a specific scene is difficult. This study investigates a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN)-based method for automatic prior learning, and it proposes a novel fusion DCNN model with multi-scale spatial and spectral learning for effectively merging an HR-RGB and LR-HS images. Specifically, we construct an U-shape network architecture for gradually reducing the feature sizes of the HR-RGB image (Encoder-side) and increasing the feature sizes of the LR-HS image (Decoder-side), and we fuse the HR spatial structure and the detail spectral attribute in multiple scales for tackling the large resolution difference in spatial domain of the observed HR-RGB and LR-HS images. Then, we employ multi-level cost functions for the proposed multi-scale learning network to alleviate the gradient vanish problem in long-propagation procedure. In addition, for further improving the reconstruction performance of the HR-HS image, we refine the predicted HR-HS image using an alternating back-projection method for minimizing the reconstruction errors of the observed LR-HS and HR-RGB images. Experiments on three benchmark HS image datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method in both quantitative values and visual qualities.

Abstract:
Image reconstruction in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) is a mathematical process that generates images at many different angles around the patient. Image reconstruction has a fundamental impact on image quality. In recent years, the literature has focused on deep learning and its applications in medical imaging, particularly image reconstruction. Due to the performance of deep learning models in a wide variety of vision applications, a considerable amount of work has recently been carried out using image reconstruction in medical images. MRI and CT appear as the ultimate scientifically appropriate imaging mode for identifying and diagnosing different diseases in this ascension age of technology. This study demonstrates a number of deep learning image reconstruction approaches and a comprehensive review of the most widely used different databases. We also give the challenges and promising future directions for medical image reconstruction.

Abstract:
The advancement of neural radiance fields (NeRFs) has facilitated the high-quality 3D reconstruction of complex scenes. However, for most NeRFs, reconstructing 3D tissues from endoscopy images poses significant challenges due to the occlusion of soft tissue regions by invalid pixels, deformations in soft tissue, and poor image quality, which severely limits their application in endoscopic scenarios. To address the above issues, we propose a novel framework to reconstruct high-fidelity soft tissue scenes from low-quality endoscopic images. We first construct an EndoTissue dataset of soft tissue regions in endoscopic images and fine-tune the Segment Anything Model (SAM) based on EndoTissue to obtain a potent segmentation network. Given a sequence of monocular endoscopic images, this segmentation network can quickly obtain the tissue mask images. Additionally, we incorporate tissue masks into a dynamic scene reconstruction method called Tensor4D to effectively guide the reconstruction of 3D deformable soft tissues. Finally, we propose adopting the image enhancement model EDAU-Net to improve the quality of the rendered views. The experimental results show that our method can effectively focus on the soft tissue regions in the image, achieving higher fidelity in detail and geometric structural integrity in reconstruction compared to state-of-the-art algorithms. Feedback from the user study indicates high participant scores for our method.

Abstract:
Deep learning methods have become the state of the art for undersampled MR reconstruction. Particularly for cases where it is infeasible or impossible for ground truth, fully sampled data to be acquired, self-supervised machine learning methods for reconstruction are becoming increasingly used. However potential issues in the validation of such methods, as well as their generalizability, remain underexplored. In this paper, we investigate important aspects of the validation of self-supervised algorithms for reconstruction of undersampled MR images: quantitative evaluation of prospective reconstructions, potential differences between prospective and retrospective reconstructions, suitability of commonly used quantitative metrics, and generalizability. Two self-supervised algorithms based on self-supervised denoising and the deep image prior were investigated. These methods are compared to a least squares fitting and a compressed sensing reconstruction using in-vivo and phantom data. Their generalizability was tested with prospectively under-sampled data from experimental conditions different to the training. We show that prospective reconstructions can exhibit significant distortion relative to retrospective reconstructions/ground truth. Furthermore, pixel-wise quantitative metrics may not capture differences in perceptual quality accurately, in contrast to a perceptual metric. In addition, all methods showed potential for generalization; however, generalizability is more affected by changes in anatomy/contrast than other changes. We further showed that no-reference image metrics correspond well with human rating of image quality for studying generalizability. Finally, we showed that a well-tuned compressed sensing reconstruction and learned denoising perform similarly on all data. The datasets acquired for this paper will be made available online; see <a href='https://www.melba-journal.org/papers/2022:022.html'>https://www.melba-journal.org/papers/2022:022.html</a> for details.

Abstract:
3D image reconstruction under rigid body motion is affected by rigid body motion and visual displacement factors, which leads to low quality of 3D image reconstruction and more noise, in order to improve the quality of 3D image reconstruction of rigid body motion. A 3D image reconstruction technique is proposed based on corner detection and edge contour feature extraction in this paper. Region scanning and point scanning are combined to scan rigid body moving object image. The wavelet denoising method is used to reduce the noise of the 3D image. The edge contour feature of the image is extracted. The sparse edge pixel fusion method is used to decompose the feature of the 3D image under the rigid body motion. The irregular triangulation method is used to extract and reconstruct the information features of the rigid body 3D images. The reconstructed feature points are accurately calibrated with the corner detection method to realize the effective reconstruction of the 3D images. The simulation results show that the method has good quality, high SNR of output image and high registration rate of feature points of image reconstruction, and proposed method has good performance of 3D image reconstruction.

Abstract:
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a low-cost imaging method which reconstructs two-dimensional cross-sectional images, visualising the impedance change within the thorax. However, the reconstruction of an EIT image is an ill-posed inverse problem. In addition, blurring, anatomical alignment, and reconstruction artefacts can hinder the interpretation of EIT images. In this contribution, we introduce a patient-specific structural prior mask into the EIT reconstruction process, with the aim of improving image interpretability. Such a prior mask ensures that only conductivity changes within the lung regions are reconstructed. To evaluate the influence of the introduced structural prior mask, we conducted numerical simulations with two scopes in terms of their different ventilation statuses and varying atelectasis scales. Quantitative analysis, including the reconstruction error and figures of merit, was applied in the evaluation procedure. The results show that the morphological structures of the lungs introduced by the mask are preserved in the EIT reconstructions and the reconstruction artefacts are decreased, reducing the reconstruction error by 25.9% and 17.7%, respectively, in the two EIT algorithms included in this contribution. The use of the structural prior mask conclusively improves the interpretability of the EIT images, which could facilitate better diagnosis and decision-making in clinical settings.

Abstract:
Abstract Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive method for imaging conductivity distributions within a target area. The inverse problem associated with EIT is nonlinear and ill-posed, leading to low spatial resolution reconstructions. Iterative algorithms are widely employed to address complex inverse problems. However, current iterative methods have notable limitations, such as the arbitrary and subjective selection of initial parameters, lengthy computational times due to numerous iterations, and the generation of reconstructions that suffer from shape blurring and a lack of higher-order detail. To address these issues, this study investigates the impact of using ISTA and FISTA iterative algorithms on the image reconstruction process in EIT. It focuses on enhancing the convergence and accuracy of EIT image reconstruction by evaluating the effectiveness of these optimization algorithms when applied to regularized inverse problems, using standard regularization techniques. ISTA and FISTA were compared to the NOSER and Newton-Raphson methods and validated through simulation and experimental results. The results show that ISTA and FISTA achieve better visualization and faster convergence than conventional methods in terms of computational efficiency when solving regularized problems, achieving conductivity reconstructions with an accuracy of above 80%. The paper concludes that while ISTA and FISTA significantly enhance EIT image reconstruction performance, the quality of the reconstructed images heavily depends on the choice of regularization methods and parameters, which are crucial to the reconstruction process.

Abstract:
Compressed sensing accelerates magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) acquisition by undersampling of the k-space. Yet, excessive undersampling impairs image quality when using conventional reconstruction techniques. Deep-learning-based reconstruction methods might allow for stronger undersampling and thus faster MRI scans without loss of crucial image quality. We compared imaging approaches using parallel imaging (SENSE), a combination of parallel imaging and compressed sensing (COMPRESSED SENSE, CS), and a combination of CS and a deep-learning-based reconstruction (CS AI) on raw k-space data acquired at different undersampling factors. 3D T2-weighted images of the lumbar spine were obtained from 20 volunteers, including a 3D sequence (standard SENSE), as provided by the manufacturer, as well as accelerated 3D sequences (undersampling factors 4.5, 8, and 11) reconstructed with CS and CS AI. Subjective rating was performed using a 5-point Likert scale to evaluate anatomical structures and overall image impression. Objective rating was performed using apparent signal-to-noise and contrast-to-noise ratio (aSNR and aCNR) as well as root mean square error (RMSE) and structural-similarity index (SSIM). The CS AI 4.5 sequence was subjectively rated better than the standard in several categories and deep-learning-based reconstructions were subjectively rated better than conventional reconstructions in several categories for acceleration factors 8 and 11. In the objective rating, only aSNR of the bone showed a significant tendency towards better results of the deep-learning-based reconstructions. We conclude that CS in combination with deep-learning-based image reconstruction allows for stronger undersampling of k-space data without loss of image quality, and thus has potential for further scan time reduction.
