A new edge-preserving method for quantitative
susceptibility mapping (QSM) is proposed, which uses 3D
slab segmented Wiener filtered phase data as input and
the convex half-quadratic regularizing algorithm to
suppress the artifacts when solving the inverse problem
by using ill-conditioned Greens function kernel.
Compared to current QSM methods, this edge-preserved
method reserves the high spatial frequency details for
veins in the final susceptibility maps. The comparisons
between quadratic regularized and edge-preserved methods
of the whole brain are presented, and the feasibility
and future work are discussed.
