What is Self-supervised Projection Denoising for Low-Dose Cone-Beam CT about?

We consider the problem of denoising low-dose xray projections for cone-beam CT, where x-ray measurements are typically modeled as signal corrupted by Poisson noise. Since each projection view is a 2D image, we regard the lowdose projection views as examples to train a convolutional neural network. For self-supervised training without ground truth, we partially blind noisy projections and train the denoising model to recover the blind spots of projection views. From the projection views denoised by the learned model, we can reconstruct a high-quality 3D volume with a reconstruction algorithm such as the standard filtered backprojection. Through a series of phantom experiments, our self-supervised denoising approach simultaneously reduces noise level and restores structural information in cone-beam CT images.
