• Abstract: Owing to its pristine soft-tissue contrast and high resolution, structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely applied in neurology, making it a valuable data source for image-based machine learning (ML) and deep learning applications. The physical nature of MRI acquisition and reconstruction, however, causes variations in image intensity, resolution, and signal-to-noise ratio. Since ML models are sensitive to such variations, performance on out-of-distribution data, which is inherent to the setting of a deployed healthcare ML application, typically drops below acceptable levels. We propose an interpretability aware adversarial training regime to improve robustness against out-of-distribution samples originating from different MRI hardware. The approach is applied to 1.5T and 3T MRIs obtained from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative database. We present preliminary results showing promising performance on out-of-distribution samples.

  Off-resonance artifacts in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are visual distortions that occur when the actual resonant frequencies of spins within the imaging volume differ from the expected frequencies used to encode spatial information. We propose to resolve these artifacts by lifting the 2D MRI reconstruction problem to 3D, introducing an additional "spectral" dimension to model this off-resonance.

  Deep Learning (DL) models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in diagnosing multiple diseases using reconstructed images as input. DL models are sensitive to varying artifacts as it leads to changes in the input data distribution between the training and testing phases. We propose to use other normalization techniques, such as Group Normalization and Layer Normalization, to inject robustness into model performance against varying image artifacts.
