PET-Adapter: Test-Time Domain Adaptation for Full and Limited-Angle PET Image Reconstruction

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) image reconstruction is inherently challenged by Poisson noise and physical degradation factors, which are further exacerbated in limited-angle acquisitions. While deep learning methods demonstrate promising performance, their generalization to unseen clinical data distributions remains limited without extensive retraining. We propose PET-Adapter, a test-time domain adaptation framework for generative PET reconstruction models pretrained solely on phantom data. Our method enables adaptation to clinical datasets with varying anatomies, tracers, and scanner configurations without requiring paired ground truth. PET-Adapter introduces layer-wise low-rank anatomical conditioning during adaptation and Ordered Subset Expectation Maximization-based warm-starting that initializes the generation from physics-informed reconstructions, reducing diffusion steps from 50 to 2 without compromising quality. Experiments across multiple clinical datasets demonstrate superior 3D reconstruction performance in both full-angle and limited-angle settings, highlighting the clinical feasibility and computational efficiency of the proposed approach.

Contextual Attention Network: Transformer Meets U-Net

Currently, convolutional neural networks (CNN) (e.g., U-Net) have become the de facto standard and attained immense success in medical image segmentation. However, as a downside, CNN based methods are a double-edged sword as they fail to build long-range dependencies and global context connections due to the limited receptive field that stems from the intrinsic characteristics of the convolution operation. Hence, recent articles have exploited Transformer variants for medical image segmentation tasks which open up great opportunities due to their innate capability of capturing long-range correlations through the attention mechanism. Although being feasibly designed, most of the cohort studies incur prohibitive performance in capturing local information, thereby resulting in less lucidness of boundary areas. In this paper, we propose a contextual attention network to tackle the aforementioned limitations. The proposed method uses the strength of the Transformer module to model the long-range contextual dependency. Simultaneously, it utilizes the CNN encoder to capture local semantic information. In addition, an object-level representation is included to model the regional interaction map. The extracted hierarchical features are then fed to the contextual attention module to adaptively recalibrate the representation space using the local information. Then, they emphasize the informative regions while taking into account the long-range contextual dependency derived by the Transformer module. We validate our method on several large-scale public medical image segmentation datasets and achieve state-of-the-art performance.
