Dl-Mri: A Unified Framework Of Deep Learning-Based Mri Super Resolution

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used in the detection and diagnosis of diseases. High-resolution MR images will help doctors to locate lesions and diagnose diseases. However, the acquisition of high-resolution MR images requires high magnetic field intensity and long scanning time, which will bring discomfort to patients and easily introduce motion artifacts, resulting in image quality degradation. Therefore, the resolution of hardware imaging has reached its limit. Based on this situation, a unified framework based on deep learning super resolution is proposed to transfer state-of-the-art deep learning methods of natural images to MRI super resolution. Compared with the traditional image super-resolution method, the deep learning super-resolution method has stronger feature extraction and characterization ability, can learn prior knowledge from a large number of sample data, and has a more stable and excellent image reconstruction effect. We propose a unified framework of deep learning -based MRI super resolution, which has five current deep learning methods with the best super-resolution effect. In addition, a high-low resolution MR image dataset with the scales of x2, x3, and x4 was constructed, covering 4 parts of the skull, knee, breast, and head and neck. Experimental results show that the proposed unified framework of deep learning super resolution has a better reconstruction effect on the data than traditional methods and provides a standard dataset and experimental benchmark for the application of deep learning super resolution in MR images.
