Main Abstract:
We propose a new joint image reconstruction method by recovering edge directly from observed data. More specifically, we reformulate joint image reconstruction with vectorial total-variation regularization as an @math minimization problem of the Jacobian of the underlying multi-modality or multi-contrast images. Derivation of data fidelity for Jacobian and transformation of noise distribution are also detailed. The new minimization problem yields an optimal @math convergence rate, where @math is the iteration number, and the per-iteration cost is low thanks to the close-form matrix-valued shrinkage. We conducted numerical tests on a number multi-contrast magnetic resonance image (MRI) datasets, which show that the proposed method significantly improves reconstruction efficiency and accuracy compared to the state-of-the-arts.

[1]: Clinical imaging with structural MRI routinely relies on multiple acquisitions of the same region of interest under several different contrast preparations. This work presents a reconstruction algorithm based on Bayesian compressed sensing to jointly reconstruct a set of images from undersampled k-space data with higher fidelity than when the images are reconstructed either individually or jointly by a previously proposed algorithm, M-FOCUSS. The joint inference problem is formulated in a hierarchical Bayesian setting, wherein solving each of the inverse problems corresponds to finding the parameters (here, image gradient coefficients) associated with each of the images. The variance of image gradients across contrasts for a single volumetric spatial position is a single hyperparameter. All of the images from the same anatomical region, but with different contrast properties, contribute to the estimation of the hyperparameters, and once they are found, the k-space data belonging to each image are used independently to infer the image gradients. Thus, commonality of image spatial structure across contrasts is exploited without the problematic assumption of correlation across contrasts. Examples demonstrate improved reconstruction quality (up to a factor of 4 in root-mean-square error) compared to previous compressed sensing algorithms and show the benefit of joint inversion under a hierarchical Bayesian model.

[2]: A major problem in imaging applications such as magnetic resonance imaging and synthetic aperture radar is the task of trying to reconstruct an image with the smallest possible set of Fourier samples, every single one of which has a potential time and or power cost. The theory of compressive sensing (CS) points to ways of exploiting inherent sparsity in such images in order to achieve accurate recovery using sub-Nyquist sampling schemes. Traditional CS approaches to this problem consist of solving total-variation (TV) minimization programs with Fourier measurement constraints or other variations thereof. This paper takes a different approach. Since the horizontal and vertical differences of a medical image are each more sparse or compressible than the corresponding TV image, CS methods will be more successful in recovering these differences individually. We develop an algorithm called GradientRec that uses a CS algorithm to recover the horizontal and vertical gradients and then estimates the original image from these gradients. We present two methods of solving the latter inverse problem, i.e., one based on least-square optimization and the other based on a generalized Poisson solver. After a thorough derivation of our complete algorithm, we present the results of various experiments that compare the effectiveness of the proposed method against other leading methods.
Another joint reconstruction approach different from aforementioned methods is to recover gradient information for each of the underlying multi-modal images from the measurements in Fourier domain, then use the recovered gradients to reconstruct images. This approach is motivated by the idea of Bayesian compressed sensing and applied to joint multi-contrast MR image reconstruction in [1] . In [1] , gradients of the multi-contrasts images are reconstructed jointly from their measurements in Fourier space under a hierarchical Bayesian framework, where the joint sparsity on gradients across multi-contrast MRI is exploited by sharing the hyper-parameter in the their maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimations. Their experiments show the advantage of using joint sparsity on gradients over conventional sparsity. However, their method requires extensive computational cost. A two-step gradient reconstruction of MR images is also proposed in [2] , however, only single-modality contrast image is considered. In [2] , the authors showed that this two-step gradient reconstruction approach allows to reconstruct image with fewer number of measurements than required by standard TV minimization method.
