Super-resolution of 4D flow MRI through inverse problem explicit solving
- 在复数域建模逆问题，利用相位和幅值信息重建高维信号。

- 无需训练数据或迭代优化，适合临床快速部署。
四维流 MRI 可实现无创、时序分辨的三维血流成像，为复杂血流动力学提供重要信息。然而，由于采集时间限制，其临床应用受限于低空间分辨率和较差的信噪比。本文提出一种基于复数域逆问题显式求解的新方法，利用临床可得的幅值和相位图像重建合成的复数空间信号。该方法将分辨率退化建模为 k 空间高频分量的物理截断，并通过快速非迭代的三维傅里叶求解器恢复高分辨率速度场。所提方法在基于计算流体动力学（CFD）仿真的合成数据及真实物理幻影的4D Flow MRI上进行了验证，显著提升空间分辨率并降低噪声，且无需大规模训练数据或迭代优化。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Four-dimensional Flow MRI enables non-invasive, time-resolved imaging of blood flow in three spatial dimensions, offering valuable insights into complex hemodynamics. However, its clinical utility is limited by low spatial resolution and poor signal-to-noise ratio, imposed by acquisition time constraints. In this work, we propose a novel method for super-resolution and denoising of 4D Flow MRI based on the explicit solution of an inverse problem formulated in the complex domain. Using clinically available magnitude and phase images, we reconstruct synthetic complex-valued spatial signals. This enables us to model resolution degradation as a physically meaningful truncation of high-frequency components in k-space, and to recover high-resolution velocity fields through a fast, non-iterative 3D Fourier-based solver. The proposed approach enhances spatial resolution and reduces noise without the need for large training datasets or iterative optimization, and is validated on synthetic datasets generated from CFD simulations as well as on a 4D Flow MRI of a physical phantom.
