• Abstract: Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) is a time-efficient approach to quantitative MRI, enabling the mapping of multiple tissue properties from a single, accelerated scan. However, achieving accurate reconstructions remains challenging, particularly in highly accelerated and undersampled acquisitions, which are crucial for reducing scan times. While deep learning techniques have advanced image reconstruction, the recent introduction of diffusion models offers new possibilities for imaging tasks, though their application in the medical field is still emerging. Notably, diffusion models have not yet been explored for the MRF problem. In this work, we propose for the first time a conditional diffusion probabilistic model for MRF image reconstruction. Qualitative and quantitative comparisons on in-vivo brain scan data demonstrate that the proposed approach can outperform established deep learning and compressed sensing algorithms for MRF reconstruction. Extensive ablation studies also explore strategies to improve computational efficiency of our approach.

  This work introduces a Flow-based Truncated Denoising Diffusion Model for super-resolution MRSI. It shortens the diffusion process by truncating the diffusion chain, and the truncated steps are estimated using a normalizing flow-based network. We demonstrate that FTDDM outperforms existing generative models while speeding up the sampling process by over 9-fold.

  Most existing MRI reconstruction methods perform tar-geted reconstruction of the entire MR image without considering specific tissue regions.

In this study, leveraging a combination of the properties of k-space data and the diffusion process, our novel scheme focuses on mining the multi-frequency prior.
