  • Patent number: 12136146
    Abstract: A system for reconstructing a magnetic particle image based on a pre-trained model aims to address the influence by point spread function and reduce the computational and time costs, which results in low reconstruction accuracy, or high acquisition time and computational costs for high-precision images. The system is implemented by: generating a simulation system matrix; pre-training a pre-constructed neural network model, and fine-tuning a pre-trained neural network model by performing a downstream task; and inputting real data corresponding to the downstream task into the pre-trained neural network model after fine-tuning, thereby playing an auxiliary role to acquire a high-quality reconstructed MPI image. The system fits the relationship between different harmonics, which helps enhance frequency-domain information.
