High-resolution (HR) magnetic resonance images (MRI) provide detailed anatomical information important for clinical application and quantitative image analysis. However, HR MRI conventionally comes at the cost of longer scan time, smaller spatial coverage, and lower signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Recent studies have shown that single image super-resolution (SISR), a technique to recover HR details from one single low-resolution (LR) input image, could provide high-quality image details with the help of advanced deep convolutional neural networks (CNN). However, deep neural networks consume memory heavily and run slowly, especially in 3D settings. In this paper, we propose a novel 3D neural network design, namely a multi-level densely connected super-resolution network (mDCSRN) with generative adversarial network (GAN)-guided training. The mDCSRN quickly trains and inferences and the GAN promotes realistic output hardly distinguishable from original HR images. Our results from experiments on a dataset with 1,113 subjects show that our new architecture beats other popular deep learning methods in recovering 4x resolution-downgraded im-ages and runs 6x faster.

Magnetic resonance image (MRI) in high spatial resolution provides detailed anatomical information and is often necessary for accurate quantitative analysis. However, high spatial resolution typically comes at the expense of longer scan time, less sp
atial coverage, and lower signal to noise ratio (SNR). Single Image Super-Resolution (SISR), a technique aimed to restore high-resolution (HR) details from one single low-resolution (LR) input image, has been improved dramatically by recent breakthroughs in deep learning. In this paper, we introduce a new neural network architecture, 3D Densely Connected Super-Resolution Networks (DCSRN) to restore HR features of structural brain MR images. Through experiments on a dataset with 1,113 subjects, we demonstrate that our network outperforms bicubic interpolation as well as other deep learning methods in restoring 4x resolution-reduced images.
High-resolution (HR) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides detailed anatomical information that is critical for diagnosis in the clinical application. However, HR MRI typically comes at the cost of long scan time, small spatial coverage, and low
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Recent studies showed that with a deep convolutional neural network (CNN), HR generic images could be recovered from low-resolution (LR) inputs via single image super-resolution (SISR) approaches. Additionally, previous works have shown that a deep 3D CNN can generate high-quality SR MRIs by using learned image priors. However, 3D CNN with deep structures, have a large number of parameters and are computationally expensive. In this paper, we propose a novel 3D CNN architecture, namely a multi-level densely connected super-resolution network (mDCSRN), which is light-weight, fast and accurate. We also show that with the generative adversarial network (GAN)-guided training, the mDCSRN-GAN provides appealing sharp SR images with rich texture details that are highly comparable with the referenced HR images. Our results from experiments on a large public dataset with 1,113 subjects showed that this new architecture outperformed other popular deep learning methods in recovering 4x resolution-downgraded images in both quality and speed.
Despite the breakthroughs in accuracy and speed of single image super-resolution using faster and deeper convolutional neural networks, one central problem remains largely unsolved: how do we recover the finer texture details when we super-resolve at
large upscaling factors? The behavior of optimization-based super-resolution methods is principally driven by the choice of the objective function. Recent work has largely focused on minimizing the mean squared reconstruction error. The resulting estimates have high peak signal-to-noise ratios, but they are often lacking high-frequency details and are perceptually unsatisfying in the sense that they fail to match the fidelity expected at the higher resolution. In this paper, we present SRGAN, a generative adversarial network (GAN) for image super-resolution (SR). To our knowledge, it is the first framework capable of inferring photo-realistic natural images for 4x upscaling factors. To achieve this, we propose a perceptual loss function which consists of an adversarial loss and a content loss. The adversarial loss pushes our solution to the natural image manifold using a discriminator network that is trained to differentiate between the super-resolved images and original photo-realistic images. In addition, we use a content loss motivated by perceptual similarity instead of similarity in pixel space. Our deep residual network is able to recover photo-realistic textures from heavily downsampled images on public benchmarks. An extensive mean-opinion-score (MOS) test shows hugely significant gains in perceptual quality using SRGAN. The MOS scores obtained with SRGAN are closer to those of the original high-resolution images than to those obtained with any state-of-the-art method.
In this paper, we propose a deep generative adversarial network for super-resolution considering the trade-off between perception and distortion. Based on good performance of a recently developed model for super-resolution, i.e., deep residual networ
k using enhanced upscale modules (EUSR), the proposed model is trained to improve perceptual performance with only slight increase of distortion. For this purpose, together with the conventional content loss, i.e., reconstruction loss such as L1 or L2, we consider additional losses in the training phase, which are the discrete cosine transform coefficients loss and differential content loss. These consider perceptual part in the content loss, i.e., consideration of proper high frequency components is helpful for the trade-off problem in super-resolution. The experimental results show that our proposed model has good performance for both perception and distortion, and is effective in perceptual super-resolution applications.
Acquiring High Resolution (HR) Magnetic Resonance (MR) images requires the patient to remain still for long periods of time, which causes patient discomfort and increases the probability of motion induced image artifacts. A possible solution is to ac
quire low resolution (LR) images and to process them with the Super Resolution Generative Adversarial Network (SRGAN) to create a super-resolved version. This work applies SRGAN to MR images of the prostate and performs three experiments. The first experiment explores improving the in-plane MR image resolution by factors of 4 and 8, and shows that, while the PSNR and SSIM (Structural SIMilarity) metrics are lower than the isotropic bicubic interpolation baseline, the SRGAN is able to create images that have high edge fidelity. The second experiment explores anisotropic super-resolution via synthetic images, in that the input images to the network are anisotropically downsampl
