Conditional Learned Reconstruction for Medical Imaging
Proceedings of The 9th International Conference on Medical Imaging with Deep Learning, PMLR 315:754-780, 2026.
Abstract
Medical imaging utilizes a handful of different imaging modalities such as tomography and magnetic resonance (MRI) imaging that require solving an inverse problem to reconstruct an image from the acquired measurements. Reconstruction methods based on learned iterative schemes have been widely explored recently, however, these modalities involve variability in hardware- and protocol-dependent acquisition parameters such as tube current and projection count in case of tomography and acceleration factor or field strength in case of MRI, which are typically not accounted for in the architecture. In this work we propose the framework of conditional learned iterative schemes, where the network weights are explicitly adapted as learned functions of the acquisition parameters. We compare conditional learned iterative schemes to their counterparts without conditioning for both tomography and MRI and demonstrate their effectiveness.
