An apparatus for producing constrained medical image data, the apparatus including processing circuitry configured to: receive medical image data that includes or is obtained from scan data representing an anatomical region in which a sub-region is enhanced; predict, using a trained model, mask data from the medical imaging data, wherein the mask data is representative of the anatomical region without enhancement of the sub-region; and predict, using the trained model or a further trained model, subtraction data from the same medical image data, the subtraction data being representative of the same anatomical region, and the processing circuitry being further configured to apply at least one constraint to obtain constrained subtraction data.

Method and apparatus for producing contrained medical image data

A medical image processing apparatus including processing circuitry configured to: obtain from medical imaging measurements, observations of one or more vector or tensor valued fields as projected from one or more 2D acquisition planes; use an optimisation procedure to determine from the observations a superset of 3D fields (which may be scalar, vector, or tensor) via a solution ansatz constrained by a system of partial differential equations, and output the plurality of these fields.
