• Abstract: Computed tomography (CT) is a widely used medical imaging technique to scan internal structures of a body, typically involving collimation and mechanical rotation. Compton scatter tomography (CST) presents an interesting alternative to conventional CT by leveraging Compton physics instead of collimation to gather information from multiple directions. While CST introduces new imaging opportunities with several advantages such as high sensitivity, compactness, and entirely fixed systems, image reconstruction remains an open problem due to the mathematical challenges of CST modeling. In contrast, deep unrolling networks have demonstrated potential in CT image reconstruction, despite their computationally intensive nature. In this study, we investigate the efficiency of unrolling networks for CST image reconstruction. To address the important computational cost required for training, we propose UnWave-Net, a novel unrolled wavelet-based reconstruction network. This architecture includes a non-local regularization term based on wavelets, which captures long-range dependencies within images and emphasizes the multi-scale components of the wavelet transform. We evaluate our approach using a CST of circular geometry which stays completely static during data acquisition, where UnWave-Net facilitates image reconstruction in the absence of a specific reconstruction formula. Our method outperforms existing approaches and achieves state-of-the-art performance in terms of SSIM and PSNR, and offers an improved computational efficiency compared to traditional unrolling networks.

  We present a novel two-stream feature fusion "Tensor-Convolution and Convolution-Transformer Network" (TCCT-Net) architecture. To better learn the meaningful patterns in the temporal-spatial domain, we design a "CT" stream that integrates a hybrid convolutional-transformer. In parallel, to efficiently extract rich patterns from the temporal-frequency domain, we introduce a "TC" stream that uses Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) to represent information in a 2D tensor form.
