Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In this paper, we present a Bayesian maximum a posteriori method for multi-slice helical CT reconstruction based on an L0-norm prior. It makes use of a very low number of projections. A set of surrogate potential functions is used to successively approximate the L0-norm function while generating the prior and to accelerate the convergence speed. Simulation results show that the proposed method provides high quality reconstructions with highly sparse sampled noise-free projections. In the presence of noise, the reconstruction quality is still significantly better than the reconstructions obtained with L1-norm or L2-norm priors.
