Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a non-invasive and economical technique to extract vital signs of the human body. Although it has been widely used in consumer and research grade wrist devices to track a users physiology, the PPG signal is very sensitive to motion which can corrupt the signals quality. Existing Motion Artifact (MA) reduction techniques have been developed and evaluated using either synthetic noisy signals or signals collected during high-intensity activities - both of which are difficult to generalize for real-life scenarios. Therefore, it is valuable to collect realistic PPG signals while performing Activities of Daily Living (ADL) to develop practical signal denoising and analysis methods. In this work, we propose an automatic pseudo clean PPG generation process for reliable PPG signal selection. For each noisy PPG segment, the corresponding pseudo clean PPG reduces the MAs and contains rich temporal details depicting cardiac features. Our experimental results show that 71% of the pseudo clean PPG collected from ADL can be considered as high quality segment where the derived MAE of heart rate and respiration rate are 1.46 BPM and 3.93 BrPM, respectively. Therefore, our proposed method can determine the reliability of the raw noisy PPG by considering quality of the corresponding pseudo clean PPG signal.

An approach to reduce motion artifacts in Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping using deep learning is proposed. We use an affine motion model with randomly created motion profiles to simulate motion-corrupted QSM images. The simulated QSM image is pai
red with its motion-free reference to train a neural network using supervised learning. The trained network is tested on unseen simulated motion-corrupted QSM images, in healthy volunteers and in Parkinsons disease patients. The results show that motion artifacts, such as ringing and ghosting, were successfully suppressed.
Fluorine-19 (19F) MRI of injected perfluorocarbon emulsions (PFCs) allows for the non-invasive quantification of inflammation and cell tracking, but suffers from a low signal-to-noise ratio and extended scan time. To address this limitation, we teste
d the hypothesis that a 19F MRI pulse sequence that combines a specific undersampling regime with signal averaging has increased sensitivity and robustness against motion artifacts compared to a non-averaged fully-sampled dataset, when both are reconstructed with compressed sensing. To this end, numerical simulations and phantom experiments were performed to characterize the point spread function (PSF) of undersampling patterns and the vulnerability to noise of acquisition-reconstruction strategies with paired numbers of x signal averages and acceleration factor x (NAx-AFx). At all investigated noise levels, the DSC of the acquisition-reconstruction strategies strongly depended on the regularization parameters and acceleration factor. In phantoms, motion robustness of an NA8-AF8 undersampling pattern versus NA1-AF1 was evaluated with simulated and real motions. Differences were assessed with Dice similarity coefficients (DSC), and were consistently higher for NA8-AF8 compared to NA1-AF1 strategy, for both simulated and real cyclic motions (P<0.001). Both acquisition-reconstruction strategies were validated in vivo in mice (n=2) injected with perfluoropolyether. These images displayed a sharper delineation of the liver with the NA8-AF8 strategy than with the NA1-AF1 strategy. In conclusion, we validated the hypothesis that in 19F MRI, the combination of undersampling and averaging improves both the sensitivity and the robustness against motion artifacts compared to a non-averaged fully-sampled dataset, when both are reconstructed with compressed sensing.
Training machine learning algorithms from a small and imbalanced dataset is often a daunting challenge in medical research. However, it has been shown that the synthetic data generated by data augmentation techniques can enlarge the dataset and contr
ibute to alleviating the imbalance situation. In this study, we propose a novel generative adversarial network (GAN) architecture-Welch-GAN and focused on examining how its influence on classifier performance is related to signal quality and class imbalance within the context of photoplethysmography (PPG)-based atrial fibrillation (AF) detection. Pulse oximetry data were collected from 126 adult patients and augmented using the permutation technique to build a large training set for training an AF detection model based on a one-dimensional residual neural network. To test the model, PPG data were collected from 13 stroke patients and utilized. Four data augmentation methods, including both traditional and GANs, are leveraged as baseline in this study. Three different experiments are designed to investigate each data augmentation methods from the aspect of performance gain, robustness to motion artifact and training sample size, respectively. Compared to the un-augmented data, by training the same AF classification algorithm using augmented data, the AF detection accuracy was significantly improved from 80.36% to over 90% with no compromise on sensitivity nor on negative predicted value. Within each data augmentation techniques, Welch-GAN has shown around 3% superiority in terms of AF detection accuracy compared to the baseline methods, which suggests the state-of-the-art of our proposed Welch-GAN.
Cine cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used for diagnosis of cardiac diseases thanks to its ability to present cardiovascular features in excellent contrast. As compared to computed tomography (CT), MRI, however, requires a long scan
time, which inevitably induces motion artifacts and causes patients discomfort. Thus, there has been a strong clinical motivation to develop techniques to reduce both the scan time and motion artifacts. Given its successful applications in other medical imaging tasks such as MRI super-resolution and CT metal artifact reduction, deep learning is a promising approach for cardiac MRI motion artifact reduction. In this paper, we propose a recurrent neural network to simultaneously extract both spatial and temporal features from under-sampled, motion-blurred cine cardiac images for improved image quality. The experimental results demonstrate substantially improved image quality on two clinical test datasets. Also, our method enables data-driven frame interpolation at an enhanced temporal resolution. Compared with existing methods, our deep learning approach gives a superior performance in terms of structural similarity (SSIM) and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR).
Purpose: To develop a scan-specific model that estimates and corrects k-space errors made when reconstructing accelerated Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data. Methods: Scan-Specific Artifact Reduction in k-space (SPARK) trains a convolutional-neu
ral-network to estimate and correct k-space errors made by an input reconstruction technique by back-propagating from the mean-squared-error loss between an auto-calibration signal (ACS) and the input techniques reconstructed ACS. First, SPARK is applied to GRAPPA and demonstrates improved robustness over other scan-specific models, such as RAKI and residual-RAKI. Subsequent experiments demonstrate that SPARK synergizes with residual-RAKI to improve reconstruction performance. SPARK also improves reconstruction quality when applied to advanced acquisition and reconstruction techniques like 2D virtual coil (VC-) GRAPPA, 2D LORAKS, 3D GRAPPA without an integrated ACS region, and 2D/3D wave-encoded images. Results: SPARK yields 1.5x - 2x RMSE reduction when applied to GRAPPA and improves robustness to ACS size for various acceleration rates in comparison to other scan-specific techniques. When applied to advanced reconstruction techniques such as residual-RAKI, 2D VC-GRAPPA and LORAKS, SPARK achieves up to 20% RMSE improvement. SPARK with 3D GRAPPA also improves performance by ~2x and perceived image quality without a fully sampled ACS region. Finally, SPARK synergizes with non-cartesian 2D and 3D wave-encoding imaging by reducing RMSE between 20-25% and providing qualitative improvements. Conclusion: SPARK synergizes with physics-based acquisition and reconstruction techniques to improve accelerated MRI by training scan-specific models to estimate and correct reconstruction errors in k-space.
