MR Cranial Bone Imaging: Evaluation of Both Motion-Corrected and Automated Deep Learning Pseudo-CT Estimated MR Images.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: CT imaging exposes patients to ionizing radiation. MR imaging is radiation free but previously has not been able to produce diagnostic-quality images of bone on a timeline suitable for clinical use. We developed automated motion correction and use deep learning to generate pseudo-CT images from MR images. We aim to evaluate whether motion-corrected pseudo-CT produces crania...

Low-dose computed tomography perceptual image quality assessment.

In computed tomography (CT) imaging, optimizing the balance between radiation dose and image quality is crucial due to the potentially harmful effects of radiation on patients. Although subjective assessments by radiologists are considered the gold standard in medical imaging, these evaluations can be time-consuming and costly. Thus, objective methods, such as the peak signal-to-noise ratio and st...
