• Abstract: Accelerated MRI reconstructs images of clinical anatomies from sparsely sampled signal data to reduce patient scan times. While recent works have leveraged deep learning to accomplish this task, such approaches have often only been explored in simulated environments where there is no signal corruption or resource limitations. In this work, we explore augmentations to neural network MRI image reconstructors to enhance their clinical relevancy. Namely, we propose a ConvNet model for detecting sources of image artifacts that achieves a classifer $F_2$ score of $79.1\%$. We also demonstrate that training reconstructors on MR signal data with variable acceleration factors can improve their average performance during a clinical patient scan by up to $2\%$. We offer a loss function to overcome catastrophic forgetting when models learn to reconstruct MR images of multiple anatomies and orientations. Finally, we propose a method for using simulated phantom data to pre-train reconstructors in situations with limited clinically acquired datasets and compute capabilities. Our results provide a potential path forward for clinical adaptation of accelerated MRI.

  Fast MRI reconstruction aims to restore high-quality images from the undersampled k-space. Existing methods typically train deep learning models to map the undersampled data to artifact-free MRI images. We propose a continuous k-space recovery network from a new perspective of implicit neural representation with image domain guidance.

  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.

  We employ adversarial attacks to generate small synthetic perturbations, which are difficult to reconstruct for a trained Deep Learning reconstruction network. We then use robust training to increase the network's sensitivity to these small features and encourage their reconstruction. Experimental results show that by introducing robust training to a reconstruction network, the rate of false negative features can be reduced.
