• Abstract: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disorder, and X-rays are commonly used for its diagnosis due to their cost-effectiveness. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), on the other hand, offers detailed soft tissue visualization and has become a valuable supplementary diagnostic tool for KOA. Unfortunately, the high cost and limited accessibility of MRI hinders its widespread use, leaving many patients with KOA to rely solely on X-ray imaging. In this study, we introduce a novel diffusion-based Xray2MRI model capable of generating pseudo-MRI volumes from a single X-ray image. In addition to using X-rays as conditional input, our model integrates target depth, KOA probability distribution, and image intensity distribution modules to guide the synthesis process, ensuring that the generated corresponding slices accurately correspond to the anatomical structures. Experimental results demonstrate that by integrating information from X-rays with additional input data, our proposed approach is capable of generating pseudo-MRI sequences that approximate real MRI scans. In addition, by increasing the number of inference steps, the model achieves effective interpolation, which further improves the continuity and smoothness of the generated MRI sequences, representing a promising first attempt at cost-effective medical imaging solutions.

  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.

  Deep learning-based image super-resolution methods exhibit promise in improving MRI resolution without additional cost. Due to lacking of aligned high-resolution (HR) and low-resolution (LR) MRI image pairs, unsupervised approaches are widely adopted for SR reconstruction with unpaired MRI images. We propose an unpaired MRI SR approach that employs contrastive learning to enhance SR performance with limited HR data.
