Abstract
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.
