Within the field of ultrasound-guided procedures, there are a number of methods for ultrasound probe calibration. While these methods are usually developed for a specific probe, they are in principle easily adapted to other probes. In practice, howev...
Conventional image restoration algorithms use transform-domain filters, which separate the noise from the sparse signal among the transform components or apply spatial smoothing filters in real space whose design relies on prior assumptions about the...

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the performance of deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) with that of standard filtered back projection (FBP) and adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction V (ASiR-V) for measurement of the vascular diam...
OBJECTIVE: To compare the quality of deep learning-reconstructed turbo spin-echo (DL-TSE) and conventionally interpolated turbo spin-echo (Conv-TSE) techniques in contrast-enhanced MRI of the neck.
