Abstract

A dynamic frame reconstruction apparatus and method for medical image processing is disclosed which reduces the computationally expensive reconstruction of images but which retains the accuracy of the image reconstruction. A convolutional neural network is used to cluster the dynamic data into groups of frames, each group sharing similar radiotracer distribution. In one embodiment, groups of frames that have similar reconstruction parameters are determined, and scatter and random estimations are computed once and shared among each of the frames in the same frame group.
