BACKGROUND: The presence of a gap between adjacent detector blocks in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners introduces a partial loss of projection data, which can degrade the image quality and quantitative accuracy of reconstructed PET images....
INTRODUCTION: A hybrid angio-CT system with 320-row detectors and deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR), provides additional imaging via 4D-CT angiography (CTA), potentially shortening procedure time and reducing DSA acquisitions, contrast media, ...
Diffusion MRI (dMRI) is the primary imaging modality used to study brain microstructure in vivo. Reliable and computationally efficient parameter inference for common dMRI biophysical models is a challenging inverse problem, due to factors such as va...
Noise reduction is essential to improve the diagnostic quality of low-dose CT (LDCT) images. In this regard, data-driven denoising methods based on generative adversarial networks (GAN) have shown promising results. However, custom designs with 2D co...
PURPOSE: Three-dimensional time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (TOF-MRA) is effective for cerebrovascular disease assessment, but clinical application is limited by long scan times and low spatial resolution. Recent advances in deep learnin...
Near-infrared spectral tomography (NIRST) is a non-invasive imaging technique that provides functional information about biological tissues. Due to diffuse light propagation in tissue and limited boundary measurements, NIRST image reconstruction pres...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of deep learning method for denoising and artefact reduction (AR) in zero echo time MRI (ZTE-MRI). Also, clinical applicability was evaluated by comparing image diagnosis to the temporomandib...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the use of deep learning (DL) T2-weighted turbo spin echo (TSE) imaging sequence with deep learning acceleration (T2DL) in prostate MRI regarding the necessity of hyoscine butylbromide (HBB) administration for high image qua...
Quantification of tissue stiffness with magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is an inverse problem that is sensitive to noise. Conventional methods for the purpose include direct inversion (DI) and local frequency estimation (LFE). In this study, we...
