Abstract

A method for reconstructing an image includes receiving tomographic data representative of an image signal; deriving, from the image signal, a plurality of components; identifying a spatial location associated with maximum phase congruency of the components; incorporating, into an image, an edge at the spatial location; and providing an output representative of the image.
