Popis: In this study, we introduce a Fourier series-based trainable filter for computed tomography (CT) reconstruction within the filtered backprojection (FBP) framework. This method overcomes the limitation in noise reduction by optimizing Fourier series coefficients to construct the filter, maintaining computational efficiency with minimal increment for the trainable parameters compared to other deep learning frameworks. Additionally, we propose Gaussian edge-enhanced (GEE) loss function that prioritizes the $L_1$ norm of high-frequency magnitudes, effectively countering the blurring problems prevalent in mean squared error (MSE) approaches. The model's foundation in the FBP algorithm ensures excellent interpretability, as it relies on a data-driven filter with all other parameters derived through rigorous mathematical procedures. Designed as a plug-and-play solution, our Fourier series-based filter can be easily integrated into existing CT reconstruction models, making it an adaptable tool for a wide range of practical applications.
