摘要
A new implementation of the minimum spanning tree (MST) phase unwrapping method is presented. The time complexity of the MST method is reduced from O(n(2)) to O(n log(2) n), where n is the number of pixels in the phase map, Typical 256 x 256 phase maps from magnetic resonance imaging can be unwrapped in seconds, compared with tens of minutes with the O(n(2)) implementation. This makes the pixel-level MST method time efficient and practically attractive.
