Abstract

A medical imaging system includes a data store () of reconstruction procedures, a selector (), a reconstructor (), a fuser (), and a display (). The data store () of reconstruction procedures identifies a plurality of reconstruction procedures. The selector () selects at least two reconstruction procedures from the data store of reconstruction procedures based on a received input, each reconstruction procedure optimized for one or more image characteristics. The reconstructor () concurrently performs the selected at least two reconstruction procedures, each reconstruction procedure generates at least one image () from the at least one data store of imaging data (). The fuser () fuses the at least two generated medical images to create a medical diagnostic image which includes characteristics from each generated image (). The display () displays the medical diagnostic image.
