• Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) usually faces lengthy acquisition times, prompting the exploration of strategies such as parallel imaging (PI) to alleviate this problem by periodically skipping specific K-space lines and subsequently reconstructing high-quality images from the undersampled K-space. Implicit neural representation (INR) has recently emerged as a promising deep learning technique, characterizing objects as continuous functions of spatial coordinates typically parameterized by a multilayer perceptron (MLP). In this study, we propose a novel MRI PI reconstruction method that uses INR. Our approach represents reconstructed fully-sampled images as functions of voxel coordinates and prior feature vectors from undersampled images, addressing the generalization challenges of INR. Specifically, we introduce a scale-embedded encoder to generate scale-independent, voxel-specific features from MR images across various undersampling scales. These features are then concatenated with coordinate vectors to reconstruct fully-sampled MR images, facilitating multiple-scale reconstructions. To evaluate our method's performance, we conducted experiments using publicly available MRI datasets, comparing it with alternative reconstruction techniques. Our quantitative assessment demonstrates the superiority of our proposed method.

  Fast MRI reconstruction aims to restore high-quality images from the undersampled k-space.

  We build a joint edge optimization model that not only incorporates individual regularizers specific to both the MR image and the edges, but also enforces a co-regularizer to effectively establish a stronger correlation between them. Specifically, the edge information is defined through a non-edge probability map to guide the image reconstruction during the optimization process. Meanwhile, the regularizers pertaining to images and edges are incorporated into a deep unfolding network to automatically learn their respective inherent a-priori information.

  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.
