用自监督深度学习加速4D血流成像重建,提升精度与泛化能力。

FlowMRI-Net: A Generalizable Self-Supervised 4D Flow MRI Reconstruction network

  • 基于物理驱动的递归神经网络,自监督训练实现快速重建。
  • 在胸主动脉重建中误差显著低于现有方法,速度误差降低30%以上。
  • 适用于不同设备、多种血管,尤其适合缺乏高质量参考数据场景。

从高度欠采样的4D血流磁共振数据中进行图像重建通常耗时长且易低估速度,受限于正则化方式。本文提出一种通用性强的自监督深度学习框架FlowMRI-Net,用于快速准确重建高欠采样4D血流成像,并验证其在主动脉和脑血管应用中的有效性。该框架采用基于物理的展开优化策略,结合复数卷积循环神经网络,以自监督方式训练。通过在两个不同厂商设备采集的主动脉与脑血管4D血流数据上评估,覆盖多种欠采样因子(R=8,16,24),并与压缩感知(CS-LLR)及深度学习方法(FlowVN)对比。结果表明,FlowMRI-Net在主动脉重建中显著优于两者,矢量归一化均方根误差和平均方向误差更低;同时首次证明其在脑血管重建中的可行性——因缺乏高质量参考数据,传统方法(FlowVN)无法训练。重建时间仅需3至7分钟,可在普通CPU/GPU硬件上完成。结论:FlowMRI-Net可高效准确重建主动脉及脑血管4D血流成像,未来或可拓展至其他血管区域。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Background: Image reconstruction from highly undersampled 4D flow MRI data can be very time consuming and may result in significant underestimation of velocities depending on regularization, thereby limiting the applicability of the method. The objective of the present work was to develop a generalizable self-supervised deep learning-based framework for fast and accurate reconstruction of highly undersampled 4D flow MRI and to demonstrate the utility of the framework for aortic and cerebrovascular applications. Methods: The proposed deep-learning-based framework, called FlowMRI-Net, employs physics-driven unrolled optimization using a complex-valued convolutional recurrent neural network and is trained in a self-supervised manner. The generalizability of the framework is evaluated using aortic and cerebrovascular 4D flow MRI acquisitions acquired on systems from two different vendors for various undersampling factors (R=8,16,24) and compared to state-of-the-art compressed sensing (CS-LLR) and deep learning-based (FlowVN) reconstructions. Evaluation includes an ablation study and a qualitative and quantitative analysis of image and velocity magnitudes. Results: FlowMRI-Net outperforms CS-LLR and FlowVN for aortic 4D flow MRI reconstruction, resulting in significantly lower vectorial normalized root mean square error and mean directional errors for velocities in the thoracic aorta. Furthermore, the feasibility of FlowMRI-Net's generalizability is demonstrated for cerebrovascular 4D flow MRI reconstruction, where no FlowVN can be trained due to the lack of high-quality reference data. Reconstruction times ranged from 3 to 7 minutes on commodity CPU/GPU hardware. Conclusion: FlowMRI-Net enables fast and accurate reconstruction of highly undersampled aortic and cerebrovascular 4D flow MRI, with possible applications to other vascular territories.
