Researchers have developed a novel iterative dual-domain refinement network, DECT-DRNet, to improve dual-energy CT material decomposition, particularly in sparse-view acquisition scenarios. This method addresses limitations in existing deep unrolling approaches by explicitly incorporating a filtered back-projection (FBP)-based Jacobian approximation. The network also introduces a learnable sparse dual-domain regularization term using Fourier convolutional residual blocks to better model global structural information and suppress noise. DECT-DRNet shows promise in achieving more accurate material decomposition even with limited projection data. AI
