Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and an image-reconstruction apparatus are disclosed for reconstructing image data on the basis of measurement data from an imaging system. In at least one embodiment of the process, initial image data, initially reconstructed from the measurement data, is optimized in an iterative optimization method utilizing a substantially edge-maintaining noise regularization term and an additional sparsity regularization term.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for reconstructing image data based upon measurement data from an imaging system, the method comprising: determining initial image data based on the measurement data; and reconstructing the image data by optimizing the initial image data, in an iterative optimization method, based on at least an edge-maintaining noise regularization term and a sparsity regularization term, the edge-maintaining noise regularization term and the sparsity regularizat…
