Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of undersampling and reconstruction of magnetic resonance images, and in particular relates to an implicit neural network magnetic resonance image reconstruction method based on sensitivity matrix constraints. Background Art

[0002] Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a commonly used examination method in clinical medicine. It has the advantages of no radiation, non-invasive, non-damage, high resolution, and multiple contrasts, and can provide a lot of valuable information for clinical diagnosis.

[0003] However, for magnetic resonance imaging, the time required for magnetic resonance scanning is longer than other imaging methods (such as computed tomography, X-ray imaging, etc.). The time required to obtain a magnetic resonance image is often at least hundreds of milliseconds, and some even take several minutes. Long-term scanning will cause serious discomfort to patients with claustrophobia. In addition, long-term scanning will cause image distortion due to natural reasons such as heartbeat and breathing. Therefore, researchers proposed to shorten the sampling time by reducing the sampling data and obtain high-definition magnetic resonance images by reconstructing the unsampled data. In order to reconstruct a more accurate image, Pruessmann proposed to reconstruct MRI by assuming the existence of coil sensitivity (Pruessmann, Klaas P., et al. "SENSE: sensitivity encoding for fast MRI." Magnetic Resonance in Medicine: An Official Journal of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine 42.5 (1999): 952-962.), which is the classic parallel MRI imaging.

[0004] With the development of deep learning, Wang et al. first proposed to introduce deep learning into fast magnetic resonance reconstruction (Wang, Shanshan, et al. "Accelerating magnetic resonance imaging via deeplearning." 2016IEEE 13th international symposium on biomedical imaging (ISBI). IEEE, 2016.). However, this reconstruction requires a large amount of fully sampled MRI data for long-term training. Recently, Shen et al. used the implicit neural representation (INR) network to reconstruct MRI by mapping image coordinates to corresponding intensity values ​​(Shen, Liyue, John Pauly, and Lei Xing. "NeRP: implicit neural representation learning with prior embedding for sparsely sampled image reconstruction." IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems 35.1 (2022): 770-782). In order to better represent the details and structure of the image, Shen et al. used Fourier coding on the input (Tancik, Matthew, et al. "Fourier features let networks learn high frequency functions in low dimensional domains." Advances in neural information processing systems 33 (2022): 7537-7547.); on the network, instead of using the traditional multilayer perceptron (MLP) as the INR network structure, they used the sinusoidal representation network SIREN, which is a multilayer perceptron MLP with a periodic sine function as the activation function. (Sitzmann, Vincent, et al. "Implicit neural representations with periodic activation functions." Advances in neural information processing systems 33 (2020): 7462-7473.).However, NeRP still requires complete pre-scanned images as prior images for training, and is clinically only applicable to situations where long-term scanning is required.

[0005] To this end, Feng et al., based on NeRP, generated coil sensitivity and images through INR, and regularized the images to perform parallel MRI reconstruction (Feng, Ruimin, et al. "IMJENSE: scan-specific implicit representation for joint coil sensitivity and image estimation in parallel MRI." IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2023.). On this basis, Hemidi et al. expanded the two-dimensional MRI image reconstruction to three dimensions (adding the time dimension). (Al-Haj Hemidi, Ziad, et al. "CineJENSE: Simultaneous Cine MRI Image Reconstruction and Sensitivity Map Estimation Using Neural Representations." International Workshop on Statistical Atlases and Computational Models of the Heart. Cham: Springer Nature Switzerland, 2023.). Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the actual needs of magnetic resonance image reconstruction and the need to adapt to development and further promote application, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an implicit neural network magnetic resonance image reconstruction method based on sensitivity matrix constraints, which strengthens the network's learning ability for high-frequency information through Fourier encoding and regularization constraints, optimizes the sensitivity matrix, and thus reconstructs high-quality magnetic resonance images. In this scheme, the coordinates of the image to be reconstructed are Fourier encoded as network input; an implicit neural network magnetic resonance image reconstruction model based on sensitivity matrix constraints is established; the implicit neural network magnetic resonance image reconstruction model based on sensitivity matrix constraints is trained; and the output of the model and the sampled data are used to combine data to obtain the final image. This deep learning parallel magnetic resonance reconstruction method through self-supervised learning has the characteristics of being able to achieve high-quality image reconstruction while reducing dependence on a large amount of full sampling data.

[0007] The technical solution specifically adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is:

[0009] Furthermore, the specific process of performing Fourier encoding on the coordinates of the image to be reconstructed is:

[0020] The loss function is minimized using the gradient descent algorithm and the standard back-propagation algorithm.

[0022]

[0023]

[0024] Therefore, the total loss function can also be expressed as:

[0025] L total =L DC +λ1*L TV +λ2*L HDF .

[0026] Furthermore, the output of the model and the sampled data are combined to obtain a final image representation as follows:
