Contrast-enhanced MR angiography (MRA) is a critical technique for vascular imaging. Nevertheless, the efficacy of MRA is often limited by the low rate of relaxation, short blood-circulation time, and metal ion-released potential long-term toxicity o...

Recognizing early cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) imaging phenotypes can help identify opportunities for effective treatment before irreversible myocardial pathology occurs. We aimed to characterize regional CS myocardial remodeling features correlating wit...
Accurate segmentation of the myocardial scar may supply relevant advancements in predicting and controlling deadly ventricular arrhythmias in subjects with cardiovascular disease. In this paper, we propose the architecture of inclusion and classifica...
PURPOSE: Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) have been successfully applied in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to facilitate better lesion visualization. However, gadolinium deposition in the human brain raised widespread concerns recently. On t...
Background To improve myocardial delayed enhancement (MDE) CT, a deep learning (DL)-based post hoc denoising method supervised with averaged MDE CT data was developed. Purpose To assess the image quality of denoised MDE CT images and evaluate their d...

PURPOSE: Deep learning-based algorithms have been shown to be able to automatically detect and segment brain metastases (BMs) in magnetic resonance imaging, mostly based on single-institutional data sets. This work aimed to investigate the use of dee...
BACKGROUND: Myocardial scars are assessed noninvasively using cardiovascular magnetic resonance late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) as an imaging gold standard. A contrast-free approach would provide many advantages, including a faster and cheaper scan...
