Photoacoustic imaging reconstruction using combined nonlocal patch and total-variation regularization for straight-line scanning

Abstract Background For practical straight-line scanning in photoacoustic imaging (PAI), serious artifacts caused by missing data will occur. Traditional total variation (TV)-based algorithms fail to obtain satisfactory results, with an over-smoothed and blurred geometric structure. Therefore, it is...
