Deep learning approaches have recently shown great promise in accelerating magnetic resonance image (MRI) acquisition. The majority of existing work have focused on designing better reconstruction models given a pre-determined acquisition trajectory, ignoring the question of trajectory optimization. In this paper, we focus on learning acquisition trajectories given a fixed image reconstruction model. We formulate the problem as a sequential decision process and propose the use of reinforcement learning to solve it. Experiments on a large scale public MRI dataset of knees show that our proposed models significantly outperform the state-of-the-art in active MRI acquisition, over a large range of acceleration factors.

In fully sampled cardiac MR (CMR) acquisitions, motion can lead to corruption of k-space lines, which can result in artefacts in the reconstructed images. In this paper, we propose a method to automatically detect and correct motion-related artefacts
in CMR acquisitions during reconstruction from k-space data. Our correction method is inspired by work on undersampled CMR reconstruction, and uses deep learning to optimize a data-consistency term for under-sampled k-space reconstruction. Our main methodological contribution is the addition of a detection network to classify motion-corrupted k-space lines to convert the problem of artefact correction to a problem of reconstruction using the data consistency term. We train our network to automatically correct for motion-related artefacts using synthetically corrupted cine CMR k-space data as well as uncorrupted CMR images. Using a test set of 50 2D+time cine CMR datasets from the UK Biobank, we achieve good image quality in the presence of synthetic motion artefacts. We quantitatively compare our method with a variety of techniques for recovering good image quality and showcase better performance compared to state of the art denoising techniques with a PSNR of 37.1. Moreover, we show that our method preserves the quality of uncorrupted images and therefore can be also utilized as a general image reconstruction algorithm.
Accelerated MRI shortens acquisition time by subsampling in the measurement k-space. Recovering a high-fidelity anatomical image from subsampled measurements requires close cooperation between two components: (1) a sampler that chooses the subsamplin
g pattern and (2) a reconstructor that recovers images from incomplete measurements. In this paper, we leverage the sequential nature of MRI measurements, and propose a fully differentiable framework that jointly learns a sequential sampling policy simultaneously with a reconstruction strategy. This co-designed framework is able to adapt during acquisition in order to capture the most informative measurements for a particular target (Figure 1). Experimental results on the fastMRI knee dataset demonstrate that the proposed approach successfully utilizes intermediate information during the sampling process to boost reconstruction performance. In particular, our proposed method outperforms the current state-of-the-art learned k-space sampling baseline on up to 96.96% of test samples. We also investigate the individual and collective benefits of the sequential sampling and co-design strategies. Code and more visualizations are available at http://imaging.cms.caltech.edu/seq-mri
Purpose: To develop a deep learning method on a nonlinear manifold to explore the temporal redundancy of dynamic signals to reconstruct cardiac MRI data from highly undersampled measurements. Methods: Cardiac MR image reconstruction is modeled as g
eneral compressed sensing (CS) based optimization on a low-rank tensor manifold. The nonlinear manifold is designed to characterize the temporal correlation of dynamic signals. Iterative procedures can be obtained by solving the optimization model on the manifold, including gradient calculation, projection of the gradient to tangent space, and retraction of the tangent space to the manifold. The iterative procedures on the manifold are unrolled to a neural network, dubbed as Manifold-Net. The Manifold-Net is trained using in vivo data with a retrospective electrocardiogram (ECG)-gated segmented bSSFP sequence. Results: Experimental results at high accelerations demonstrate that the proposed method can obtain improved reconstruction compared with a compressed sensing (CS) method k-t SLR and two state-of-the-art deep learning-based methods, DC-CNN and CRNN. Conclusion: This work represents the first study unrolling the optimization on manifolds into neural networks. Specifically, the designed low-rank manifold provides a new technical route for applying low-rank priors in dynamic MR imaging.
Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exhibits high correlations in k-space and time. In order to accelerate the dynamic MR imaging and to exploit k-t correlations from highly undersampled data, here we propose a novel deep learning based approach
for dynamic MR image reconstruction, termed k-t NEXT (k-t NEtwork with X-f Transform). In particular, inspired by traditional methods such as k-t BLAST and k-t FOCUSS, we propose to reconstruct the true signals from aliased signals in x-f domain to exploit the spatio-temporal redundancies. Building on that, the proposed method then learns to recover the signals by alternating the reconstruction process between the x-f space and image space in an iterative fashion. This enables the network to effectively capture useful information and jointly exploit spatio-temporal correlations from both complementary domains. Experiments conducted on highly undersampled short-axis cardiac cine MRI scans demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms the current state-of-the-art dynamic MR reconstruction approaches both quantitatively and qualitatively.
Purpose: This work proposes a novel approach to efficiently generate MR fingerprints for MR fingerprinting (MRF) problems based on the unsupervised deep learning model generative adversarial networks (GAN). Methods: The GAN model is adopted and modif
ied for better convergence and performance, resulting in an MRF specific model named GAN-MRF. The GAN-MRF model is trained, validated, and tested using different MRF fingerprints simulated from the Bloch equations with certain MRF sequence. The performance and robustness of the model are further tested by using in vivo data collected on a 3 Tesla scanner from a healthy volunteer together with MRF dictionaries with different sizes. T1, T2 maps are generated and compared quantitatively. Results: The validation and testing curves for the GAN-MRF model show no evidence of high bias or high variance problems. The sample MRF fingerprints generated from the trained GAN-MRF model agree well with the benchmark fingerprints simulated from the Bloch equations. The in vivo T1, T2 maps generated from the GAN-MRF fingerprints are in good agreement with those generated from the Bloch simulated fingerprints, showing good performance and robustness of the proposed GAN-MRF model. Moreover, the MRF dictionary generation time is reduced from hours to sub-second for the testing dictionary. Conclusion: The GAN-MRF model enables a fast and accurate generation of the MRF fingerprints. It significantly reduces the MRF dictionary generation process and opens the door for real-time applications and sequence optimization problems.
