Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used in clinical practice, but it has been traditionally limited by its slow data acquisition. Recent advances in compressed sensing (CS) techniques for MRI reduce acquisition time while maintaining high image quality. Whereas classical CS assumes the images are sparse in known analytical dictionaries or transform domains, methods using learned image models for reconstruction have become popular. The model could be pre-learned from datasets, or learned simultaneously with the reconstruction, i.e., blind CS (BCS). Besides the well-known synthesis dictionary model, recent advances in transform learning (TL) provide an efficient alternative framework for sparse modeling in MRI. TL-based methods enjoy numerous advantages including exact sparse coding, transform update, and clustering solutions, cheap computation, and convergence guarantees, and provide high-quality results in MRI compared to popular competing methods. This paper provides a review of some recent works in MRI reconstruction from limited data, with focus on the recent TL-based methods. A unified framework for incorporating various TL-based models is presented. We discuss the connections between transform learning and convolutional or filter bank models and corresponding multi-layer extensions, with connections to deep learning. Finally, we discuss recent trends in MRI, open problems, and future directions for the field.

Fast and accurate reconstruction of magnetic resonance (MR) images from under-sampled data is important in many clinical applications. In recent years, deep learning-based methods have been shown to produce superior performance on MR image reconstruc
tion. However, these methods require large amounts of data which is difficult to collect and share due to the high cost of acquisition and medical data privacy regulations. In order to overcome this challenge, we propose a federated learning (FL) based solution in which we take advantage of the MR data available at different institutions while preserving patients privacy. However, the generalizability of models trained with the FL setting can still be suboptimal due to domain shift, which results from the data collected at multiple institutions with different sensors, disease types, and acquisition protocols, etc. With the motivation of circumventing this challenge, we propose a cross-site modeling for MR image reconstruction in which the learned intermediate latent features among different source sites are aligned with the distribution of the latent features at the target site. Extensive experiments are conducted to provide various insights about FL for MR image reconstruction. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework is a promising direction to utilize multi-institutional data without compromising patients privacy for achieving improved MR image reconstruction.

Recent works have demonstrated that deep learning (DL) based compressed sensing (CS) implementation can accelerate Magnetic Resonance (MR) Imaging by reconstructing MR images from sub-sampled k-space data. However, network architectures adopted in pr
evious methods are all designed by handcraft. Neural Architecture Search (NAS) algorithms can automatically build neural network architectures which have outperformed human designed ones in several vision tasks. Inspired by this, here we proposed a novel and efficient network for the MR image reconstruction problem via NAS instead of manual attempts. Particularly, a specific cell structure, which was integrated into the model-driven MR reconstruction pipeline, was automatically searched from a flexible pre-defined operation search space in a differentiable manner. Experimental results show that our searched network can produce better reconstruction results compared to previous state-of-the-art methods in terms of PSNR and SSIM with 4-6 times fewer computation resources. Extensive experiments were conducted to analyze how hyper-parameters affect reconstruction performance and the searched structures. The generalizability of the searched architecture was also evaluated on different organ MR datasets. Our proposed method can reach a better trade-off between computation cost and reconstruction performance for MR reconstruction problem with good generalizability and offer insights to design neural networks for other medical image applications. The evaluation code will be available at https://github.com/yjump/NAS-for-CSMRI.
Decreasing magnetic resonance (MR) image acquisition times can potentially reduce procedural cost and make MR examinations more accessible. Compressed sensing (CS)-based image reconstruction methods, for example, decrease MR acquisition time by recon
structing high-quality images from data that were originally sampled at rates inferior to the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem. In this work we propose a hybrid architecture that works both in the k-space (or frequency-domain) and the image (or spatial) domains. Our network is composed of a complex-valued residual U-net in the k-space domain, an inverse Fast Fourier Transform (iFFT) operation, and a real-valued U-net in the image domain. Our experiments demonstrated, using MR raw k-space data, that the proposed hybrid approach can potentially improve CS reconstruction compared to deep-learning networks that operate only in the image domain. In this study we compare our method with four previously published deep neural networks and examine their ability to reconstruct images that are subsequently used to generate regional volume estimates. We evaluated undersampling ratios of 75% and 80%. Our technique was ranked second in the quantitative analysis, but qualitative analysis indicated that our reconstruction performed the best in hard to reconstruct regions, such as the cerebellum. All images reconstructed with our method were successfully post-processed, and showed good volumetry agreement compared with the fully sampled reconstruction measures.
Medical imaging is an invaluable resource in medicine as it enables to peer inside the human body and provides scientists and physicians with a wealth of information indispensable for understanding, modelling, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. Re
construction algorithms entail transforming signals collected by acquisition hardware into interpretable images. Reconstruction is a challenging task given the ill-posed of the problem and the absence of exact analytic inverse transforms in practical cases. While the last decades witnessed impressive advancements in terms of new modalities, improved temporal and spatial resolution, reduced cost, and wider applicability, several improvements can still be envisioned such as reducing acquisition and reconstruction time to reduce patients exposure to radiation and discomfort while increasing clinics throughput and reconstruction accuracy. Furthermore, the deployment of biomedical imaging in handheld devices with small power requires a fine balance between accuracy and latency.
Signal models based on sparse representations have received considerable attention in recent years. On the other hand, deep models consisting of a cascade of functional layers, commonly known as deep neural networks, have been highly successful for t
he task of object classification and have been recently introduced to image reconstruction. In this work, we develop a new image reconstruction approach based on a novel multi-layer model learned in an unsupervised manner by combining both sparse representations and deep models. The proposed framework extends the classical sparsifying transform model for images to a Multi-lAyer Residual Sparsifying transform (MARS) model, wherein the transform domain data are jointly sparsified over layers. We investigate the application of MARS models learned from limited regular-dose images for low-dose CT reconstruction using Penalized Weighted Least Squares (PWLS) optimization. We propose new formulations for multi-layer transform learning and image reconstruction. We derive an efficient block coordinate descent algorithm to learn the transforms across layers, in an unsupervised manner from limited regular-dose images. The learned model is then incorporated into the low-dose image reconstruction phase. Low-dose CT experimental results with both the XCAT phantom and Mayo Clinic data show that the MARS model outperforms conventional methods such as FBP and PWLS methods based on the edge-preserving (EP) regularizer in terms of two numerical metrics (RMSE and SSIM) and noise suppression. Compared with the single-layer learned transform (ST) model, the MARS model performs better in maintaining some subtle details.
