Abstract
Disclosed are an extended U-Net for multi-information extraction and an application method thereof in low-dose X-ray imaging. The follow technical solution is adopted: expanding the number of output channels in upsampling of a U-Net model, adding a fully connected layer at the end to realize extraction and superposition calculation of multiple information, processing low-dose X-ray images by using the extended U-Net, and taking normalized images, noise and image salient features as outputs for learning and training.
