• Abstract: Implicit neural representations (INRs) have gained prominence as a powerful paradigm in scene reconstruction and computer graphics, demonstrating remarkable results. By utilizing neural networks to parameterize data through implicit continuous functions, INRs offer several benefits. Recognizing the potential of INRs beyond these domains, this survey aims to provide a comprehensive overview of INR models in the field of medical imaging. In medical settings, numerous challenging and ill-posed problems exist, making INRs an attractive solution. The survey explores the application of INRs in various medical imaging tasks, such as image reconstruction, segmentation, registration, novel view synthesis, and compression. It discusses the advantages and limitations of INRs, highlighting their resolution-agnostic nature, memory efficiency, ability to avoid locality biases, and differentiability, enabling adaptation to different tasks. Furthermore, the survey addresses the challenges and considerations specific to medical imaging data, such as data availability, computational complexity, and dynamic clinical scene analysis. It also identifies future research directions and opportunities, including integration with multi-modal imaging, real-time and interactive systems, and domain adaptation for clinical decision support. To facilitate further exploration and implementation of INRs in medical image analysis, we have provided a compilation of cited studies along with their available open-source implementations on \href{https://github.com/mindflow-institue/Awesome-Implicit-Neural-Representations-in-Medical-imaging}. Finally, we aim to consistently incorporate the most recent and relevant papers regularly.

  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.

  Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) have recently advanced the field of deep learning due to their ability to learn continuous representations of signals. We propose a novel framework, referred to as the Semantically Conditioned INR (SeCo-INR), that conditions an INR using local priors from a medical image. Our framework learns a continuous representation of the semantic segmentation features of a medical image and utilizes it to derive the optimal INR for each semantic region of the image.
