Structural similarity

Edges are expected to be in the same locationand orientation(at least when corresponding to anatomy!)

Example: Joint Total Variation

• Encourages regions to be “flat”

• Forces edges to be in the same placebut is independent of orientation

Conclusions

Quoting Julian Matthews:• There are many different ways to construct mathematical

representations• Which is the best?• Which is the best for my particular application?

• The methods have many configuration parameters which willneed to be optimised for a given application (e.g. β)

A few extra from me:• What if edges are actually different?

• Functional vs anatomical• Movement

• Hard to do practically• Optimisation algorithms are harder• Computation time is higher• Need dual-modality reconstruction chain

Draw backs of joint reconstruction

Advantages of joint reconstruction

Huge scope for improved image quality

• when edges are definitely aligned (e.g. CT?)

• when ill-posedness is very different for thedifferent modalities (e.g. PET-MR)

Future directions

• Better understanding of different ways toexploit correlations in the image features

• Find ways to set parameters

• Algorithmic improvements

• Testing, testing, testing

Understand behaviour first in one-sided problem(Ehrhardt et al TMI 2015, Schramm et al IEEE MIC 2015)

• Extension towards dynamic data• Parametric images

• Motion fields
