Abstract
An imaging method (100) includes: acquiring first training images of one or more imaging subjects using a first image acquisition device (12); acquiring second training images of the same one or more imaging subjects as the first training images using a second image acquisition device (14) of the same imaging modality as the first imaging device; and training a neural network (NN) (16) to transform the first training images into transformed first training images having a minimized value of a difference metric comparing the transformed first training images and the second training images.
