This paper presents a novel methodology for denoising sinograms based on cycle-consistent adversarial networks, focusing on medical imaging applications. The proposed method is designed to denoise sinograms without requiring paired information of low to high levels of noise and uncertainty, which is often difficult to obtain in real-world scenarios. The method was trained on three two sets of projection data from randomly generated software phantoms, using GATE, with various levels of collections time. The denoised and high-collection-time sinograms were then reconstructed and compared using the Ordered Subset Expectation Maximization (OSEM) method, which showed that the proposed method significantly removes noise without impacting the quality of the sinograms and improving the reconstructions. Finally, the method was tested on dopamine transporter imaging with single-photon emission computed tomography (DAT-SPECT) sinograms to demonstrate its effectiveness and capability.

This study introduces an innovative sinogram reconstruction technique employing Fourier neural operators (FNOs) for single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging. The proposed method accepts a limited number of sinogram projections and directly reconstructs a superior image without intermediate steps. The approach is trained on a dataset of high-quality SPECT images using FNOs, a category of neural networks capable of learning linear operators through Fourier analysis. The method is assessed using software-generated phantoms via GATE and compared against the standard ordered subsets expectation maximization (OSEM) reconstruction method. The results demonstrate that the proposed method considerably enhances reconstruction quality and surpasses state-of-the-art compressed sensing techniques. The presented method holds the potential to decrease radiation exposure and scanning time required for SPECT imaging, rendering it a valuable asset in clinical practice. Future research could investigate the application of this method to other imaging modalities and advanced neural network architectures.
