用对抗学习从低场磁共振生成高场图像，提升数据质量用于下游任务

Given the scarcity and cost of high-field MRI, the synthesis of high-field MRI from low-field MRI holds significant potential when there is limited data for training downstream tasks (e.g. segmentation). Low-field MRI often suffers from a reduced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and spatial resolution compared to high-field MRI. However, synthesizing high-field MRI data presents challenges. These involve aligning image features across domains while preserving anatomical accuracy and enhancing fine details. To address these challenges, we propose a Pretext Task Adversarial (PTA) learning framework for high-field MRI synthesis from low-field MRI data. The framework comprises three processes: (1) The slice-wise gap perception (SGP) network aligns the slice inconsistencies of low-field and high-field datasets based on contrastive learning. (2) The local structure correction (LSC) network extracts local structures by restoring the locally rotated and masked images. (3) The pretext task-guided adversarial training process introduces additional supervision and incorporates a discriminator to improve image realism. Extensive experiments on low-field to ultra high-field task demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, achieving state-of-the-art performance (16.892 in FID, 1.933 in IS, and 0.324 in MS-SSIM). This enables the generation of high-quality high-field-like MRI data from low-field MRI data to augment training datasets for downstream tasks.
