The 3D PET/MRI image fusion algorithm based on improved structural tensor solves the problems of the lack of reliability of structural tensor decomposition, insufficient detail information of fusion image, and imperfect description of local features, and it is better than other fusion methods of spatial domain and transform domain in terms of subjective evaluation and objective evaluation.
