Model based learning for accelerated, limited-view 3D photoacoustic tomography
Recent advances in deep learning for tomographic reconstructions have shown
great potential to create accurate and high quality images with a considerable
speed-up. In this work we present a deep neural network that is specifically
designed to provide high resolution 3D images from restricted photoacoustic
measurements. The network is designed to represent an iterative scheme and
incorporates gradient information of the data fit to compensate for limited
view artefacts. Due to the high complexity of the photoacoustic forward
operator, we separate training and computation of the gradient information. A
suitable prior for the desired image structures is learned as part of the
training. The resulting network is trained and tested on a set of segmented
vessels from lung CT scans and then applied to in-vivo photoacoustic
measurement data
