- Abstract: Purpose: To propose a deep learning-based reconstruction framework for
ultrafast and robust diffusion tensor imaging and fiber tractography. Methods:
We propose SuperDTI to learn the nonlinear relationship between
diffusion-weighted images (DWIs) and the corresponding tensor-derived
quantitative maps as well as the fiber tractography. Super DTI bypasses the
tensor fitting procedure, which is well known to be highly susceptible to noise
and motion in DWIs. The network is trained and tested using datasets from Human
Connectome Project and patients with ischemic stroke. SuperDTI is compared
against the state-of-the-art methods for diffusion map reconstruction and fiber
tracking. Results: Using training and testing data both from the same protocol
and scanner, SuperDTI is shown to generate fractional anisotropy and mean
diffusivity maps, as well as fiber tractography, from as few as six raw DWIs.
The method achieves a quantification error of less than 5% in all regions of
interest in white matter and gray matter structures. We also demonstrate that
the trained neural network is robust to noise and motion in the testing data,
and the network trained using healthy volunteer data can be directly applied to
stroke patient data without compromising the lesion detectability. Conclusion:
This paper demonstrates the feasibility of superfast diffusion tensor imaging
and fiber tractography using deep learning with as few as six DWIs directly,
bypassing tensor fitting. Such a significant reduction in scan time may allow
the inclusion of DTI into the clinical routine for many potential applications.

This paper proposes a novel method, AID-DTI (Accelerating hIgh fiDelity Diffusion Imaging), to facilitate fast and accurate DTI with only six measurements.
AID-DTI is equipped with a newly designed Singular Value Decomposition (SVD)-based regularizer, which can effectively capture fine details while suppressing noise during network training.
Experimental results on Human Connectome Project (HCP) data consistently demonstrate that the proposed method estimates DTI parameter maps with fine-grained details and outperforms three state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and qualitatively.

Classification on Chest Radiographs [55.78588835407174]
Vision Transformers (ViTs) have not been applied to this task despite their high classification performance on generic images.
ViTs do not rely on convolutions but on patch-based self-attention and in contrast to CNNs, no prior knowledge of local connectivity is present.
Our results show that while the performance between ViTs and CNNs is on par with a small benefit for ViTs, DeiTs outperform the former if a reasonably large data set is available for training.

Noise in diffusion-weighted images (DWIs) decreases the accuracy and precision of DTI derived microstructural parameters.
Deep learning-based image denoising using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has superior performance but often requires additional high-SNR data for supervising the training of CNNs.
We develop a self-supervised deep learning-based method entitled "SDnDTI" for denoising DTI data, which does not require additional high-SNR data for training.
