摘 要: 介绍了一种基于字典学习的去噪方法,并将其应用于降低低剂量CT图像噪声水平的研究.针对体模图像和病人图像,分别选择低剂量CT图像和正常剂量CT图像作为训练样本,采用K-SVD算法,通过迭代学习构建图像字典;然后,结合正交匹配跟踪算法,实现图像稀疏表示,稀疏成分对应于图像的有用信息,其他成分对应于图像噪声;最后,依据图像的稀疏成分重建图像,达到去除噪声的目的.实验结果表明:字典的大小、稀疏表示的约束条件等参数会显著影响所提算法的去噪结果;相比低剂量CT图像,将正常剂量CT图像作为训练样本可以得到更好的去噪结果;在相同的噪声水平下,所提算法与传统图像去噪算法相比可以更好地去除图像噪声,且保留了图像的细节信息. A dictionary learning based denoising method is introduced to eliminate the noise in low- dose computed-tomography (LDCT) image. Aiming at the phantom and patient images, the k-means singular value decomposition (K-SVD) algorithm is adopted to train image dictionary itera- tively based on LDCT and normal-dose CT (NDCT) images. Then, based on the orthogonal matc- hing pursuit algorithm, the sparse representation decomposes the noise image into sparse component which is related to image information and remains which are regarded as noise. Finally, noises can be suppressed by reconstructing image only with its sparse components. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method is strongly affected by the dictionary size and the constraints for sparsity in dictionary training. The better performance can be achieved when training samples are extracted from NDCT image instead of LDCT image. Under the same noise level, com- pared with the traditional de-noising methods, the proposed method is more effective in suppressing noise and improving the visual effect while maintaining more diagnostic image details.
