The purpose of this study is to improve accuracy for
quantitative susceptibility map (QSM) by Edge-Weighted
L1 (EW-L1) regularization. Numerical simulation and
human brain experiment were performed to demonstrate the
superiority of EW-L1 over conventional L1 method. Our
results showed that EW-L1 provides highly accurate
estimation and suppressed streaking artefact of QSM.
Preliminary results of brain imaging suggested its
feasibility of QSM in clinical practice.
