• Abstract summary: Medical image super-resolution (SR) reconstruction using deep learning techniques can enhance lesion analysis and assist doctors in improving diagnostic efficiency and accuracy. Existing deep learning-based SR methods rely on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which inherently limit the expressive capabilities of these models. We propose an A-network that utilizes multiple convolution operator feature extraction modules (MCO) for extracting image features.

• Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a valuable clinical tool for displaying anatomical structures and aiding in accurate diagnosis. Medical image super-resolution (SR) reconstruction using deep learning techniques can enhance lesion analysis and assist doctors in improving diagnostic efficiency and accuracy. However, existing deep learning-based SR methods predominantly rely on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which inherently limit the expressive capabilities of these models and therefore make it challenging to discover potential relationships between different image features. To overcome this limitation, we propose an A-network that utilizes multiple convolution operator feature extraction modules (MCO) for extracting image features using multiple convolution operators. These extracted features are passed through multiple sets of cross-feature extraction modules (MSC) to highlight key features through inter-channel feature interactions, enabling subsequent feature learning. An attention-based sparse graph neural network module is incorporated to establish relationships between pixel features, learning which adjacent pixels have the greatest impact on determining the features to be filled. To evaluate our model's effectiveness, we conducted experiments using different models on data generated from multiple datasets with different degradation multiples, and the experimental results show that our method is a significant improvement over the current state-of-the-art methods.
