Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods for generating a medical image receive scan data, wherein the scan data is defined in an acquisition space; perform a first reconstruction process to generate a lower-resolution image based on the scan data, wherein the first reconstruction process uses a subset of the scan data; and perform a second reconstruction process to generate a higher-resolution image based on the scan data, wherein the second reconstruction process uses more of the scan data than the subset of the scan data.
