Myocardial perfusion computed tomography (MPCT) imaging is commonly used to detect myocardial ischemia quantitatively. A limitation in MPCT is that an additional radiation dose is required compared to unenhanced CT due to its repeated dynamic data acquisition. Meanwhile, noise and streak artifacts in low-dose cases are the main factors that degrade the accuracy of quantifying myocardial ischemia and hamper the diagnostic utility of the filtered backprojection reconstructed MPCT images. Moreover, it is noted that the MPCT images are composed of a series of 2/3D images, which can be naturally regarded as a 3/4-order tensor, and the MPCT images are globally correlated along time and are sparse across space. To obtain higher fidelity ischemia from low-dose MPCT acquisitions quantitatively, we propose a robust statistical iterative MPCT image reconstruction algorithm by incorporating tensor total generalized variation (TTGV) regularization into a penalized weighted least-squares framework. Specifically, the TTGV regularization fuses the spatial correlation of the myocardial structure and the temporal continuation of the contrast agent intake during the perfusion. Then, an efficient iterative strategy is developed for the objective function optimization. Comprehensive evaluations have been conducted on a digital XCAT phantom and a preclinical porcine dataset regarding the accuracy of the reconstructed MPCT images, the quantitative differentiation of ischemia and the algorithm's robustness and efficiency.

D017202 Myocardial Ischemia A disorder of cardiac function caused by insufficient blood flow to the muscle tissue of the heart. The decreased blood flow may be due to narrowing of the coronary arteries (CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE), to obstruction by a thrombus (CORONARY THROMBOSIS), or less commonly, to diffuse narrowing of arterioles and other small vessels within the heart. Severe interruption of the blood supply to the myocardial tissue may result in necrosis of cardiac muscle (MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION).

D019047 Phantoms, Imaging Devices or objects in various imaging techniques used to visualize or enhance visualization by simulating conditions encountered in the procedure. Phantoms are used very often in procedures employing or measuring x-irradiation or radioactive material to evaluate performance. Phantoms often have properties similar to human tissue. Water demonstrates absorbing properties similar to normal tissue, hence water-filled phantoms are used to map radiation levels. Phantoms are used also as teaching aids to simulate real conditions with x-ray or ultrasonic machines.
