X-ray computed tomography reconstruction is an ill-posed inverse problem, particularly in low-dose and sparse-angle settings where measurements are noisy and incomplete. While learned reconstruction methods such as the Learned Primal-Dual algorithm achieve strong performance, they typically rely on supervised training with access to ground-truth data, which is often unavailable in practice.

The paper introduces a deep dictionary network (DDN) foundation model designed for ultra‑low‑dose CT (ULDCT) denoising across multiple organs. By cascading convolutional sparse coding layers with iterative soft‑thresholding, the architecture offers inherent interpretability, while dynamic dictionary and threshold modules enhance representation. The model is pre‑trained on over one million normal‑dose CT images and fine‑tuned on multi‑organ ULDCT datasets, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance that consistently outperforms existing methods.
