• Abstract summary: Data Consistency (DC) is crucial for generalization in multi-modal data and robustness in detecting pathology. This work proposes the Cascades of Independently Recurrent Inference Machines (CIRIM) to assess DC through unrolled optimization. We show that the CIRIM performs best when implicitly enforcing DC, while the E2EVN requires explicitly formulated DC.

• Abstract: Interpretability and robustness are imperative for integrating Machine Learning methods for accelerated Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) reconstruction in clinical applications. Doing so would allow fast high-quality imaging of anatomy and pathology. Data Consistency (DC) is crucial for generalization in multi-modal data and robustness in detecting pathology. This work proposes the Cascades of Independently Recurrent Inference Machines (CIRIM) to assess DC through unrolled optimization, implicitly by gradient descent and explicitly by a designed term. We perform extensive comparison of the CIRIM to other unrolled optimization methods, being the End-to-End Variational Network (E2EVN) and the RIM, and to the UNet and Compressed Sensing (CS). Evaluation is done in two stages. Firstly, learning on multiple trained MRI modalities is assessed, i.e., brain data with ${T_1}$-weighting and FLAIR contrast, and ${T_2}$-weighted knee data. Secondly, robustness is tested on reconstructing pathology through white matter lesions in 3D FLAIR MRI data of relapsing remitting Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients. Results show that the CIRIM performs best when implicitly enforcing DC, while the E2EVN requires explicitly formulated DC. The CIRIM shows the highest lesion contrast resolution in reconstructing the clinical MS data. Performance improves by approximately 11% compared to CS, while the reconstruction time is twenty times reduced.

  Compressed Sensing MRI reconstructs images of the body's internal anatomy from undersampled and compressed measurements. Deep neural networks have shown great potential for reconstructing high-quality images from highly undersampled measurements. We propose a unified model that is robust to different subsampling patterns and image resolutions in CS-MRI.

  Multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based automatic auxiliary glioma diagnosis plays an important role in the clinic. Contrast-enhanced MRI sequences (e.g., contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging) were utilized in most of the existing relevant studies. However, acquiring contrast-enhanced MRI data is sometimes not feasible due to the patients physiological limitations. It is more time-consuming and costly to collect contrast-enhanced MRI data in the clinic.

  We propose a weakly-supervised deep learning framework that preserves the rigidity and the volume of each vertebra while maximizing the accuracy of the registration. We specifically design these losses to depend only on the CT label maps since automatic vertebra segmentation in CT gives more accurate results contrary to MRI. Our results show that adding the anatomy-aware losses increases the plausibility of the inferred transformation while keeping the accuracy untouched.
