BACKGROUND: Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) denoising through deep learning (DL) often faces insufficient training data from patients. One solution is to train DL models using healthy subjects' data which are m...

BACKGROUND: An inherently poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) causes inaccuracy and less precision in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and arterial transit time (ATT) when using arterial spin labeling (ASL). Deep neural network (DNN)-based parameter estimation...
Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have demonstrated good accuracy and speed in spatially registering high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) images. However, some functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) im...
Accurate segmentation of renal tissues is an essential step for renal perfusion estimation and postoperative assessment of the allograft. Images are usually manually labeled, which is tedious and prone to human error. We present an image analysis met...
PURPOSE: To present a Swin Transformer-based deep learning (DL) model (SwinIR) for denoising single-delay and multi-delay 3D arterial spin labeling (ASL) and compare its performance with convolutional neural network (CNN) and other Transformer-based ...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the predictive capabilities of a radiomics signature obtained from arterial spin labeling (ASL) imaging in forecasting and detecting stages of kidney damage in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), as we...
Segmentation of cerebral vasculature on MR vascular images is of great significance for clinical application and research. However, the existing cerebrovascular segmentation approaches are limited due to insufficient image contrast and complicated al...
PURPOSE: Multiparametric arterial spin labeling (MP-ASL) can quantify cerebral blood flow (CBF) and arterial cerebral blood volume (CBV). However, its accuracy is compromised owing to its intrinsically low SNR, necessitating complex and time-consumin...
Choroid plexus (CP) is an important brain structure that produces cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CP perfusion has been studied using multi-delay arterial spin labeling (MD-ASL) in adults but not in pediatric populations due to the challenge of small CP s...
