Abstract

Fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) is a non-invasive, radiation-free, and highly sensitive optical molecular imaging technique for early tumor detection. However, inadequate measurement information along with significant scattering of near-infrared light within the tissue leads to high ill-posedness in the inverse problem of FMT. To improve the quality and efficiency of FMT reconstruction, we build a reconstruction model based on log-sum regularization and introduce an online maximum a posteriori estimation (OPE) algorithm to solve the non-convex optimization problem. The OPE algorithm approximates a stationary point by evaluating the gradient of the objective function at each iteration, and its notable strength lies in the remarkable speed of convergence. The results of simulations and experiments demonstrate that the OPE algorithm ensures good reconstruction quality and exhibits outstanding performance in terms of reconstruction efficiency.
