直接从欠采样k空间数据端到端完成心脏分析,跳过重建图像步骤。

No Image, No Problem: End-to-End Multi-Task Cardiac Analysis from Undersampled k-Space

  • 在潜在空间中对齐欠采样k空间与完整图像,实现直接特征学习。
  • 基于4.2万例模拟数据训练,多任务性能媲美顶尖图像域模型。
  • 适合需要高效心脏MRI分析的临床研究与系统设计者。

传统心脏磁共振(CMR)流程采用“重建后分析”的顺序范式,需从欠采样的k空间恢复高维像素图,这一中间步骤引入了不必要的伪影和信息瓶颈,形成根本性数学矛盾。为挖掘k空间的直接诊断潜力,本文提出k-MTR框架,将欠采样k空间与全采样图像映射至共享语义流形。基于42,000例受控模拟数据,k-MTR迫使k空间编码器在潜在空间中恢复因欠采样丢失的解剖信息,绕过下游分析中的显式逆问题。结果表明,该潜在空间可直接嵌入高级生理语义,涵盖连续表型回归、疾病分类与解剖分割任务,性能与当前最优图像域方法相当。k-MTR证明了可直接从k空间表示中恢复精确空间几何与多任务特征,为面向任务的心脏MRI工作流提供了稳健架构蓝图。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Conventional clinical CMR pipelines rely on a sequential "reconstruct-then-analyze" paradigm, forcing an ill-posed intermediate step that introduces avoidable artifacts and information bottlenecks. This creates a fundamental mathematical paradox: it attempts to recover high-dimensional pixel arrays (i.e., images) from undersampled k-space, rather than directly extracting the low-dimensional physiological labels actually required for diagnosis. To unlock the direct diagnostic potential of k-space, we propose k-MTR (k-space Multi-Task Representation), a k-space representation learning framework that aligns undersampled k-space data and fully-sampled images into a shared semantic manifold. Leveraging a large-scale controlled simulation of 42,000 subjects, k-MTR forces the k-space encoder to restore anatomical information lost to undersampling directly within the latent space, bypassing the explicit inverse problem for downstream analysis. We demonstrate that this latent alignment enables the dense latent space embedded with high-level physiological semantics directly from undersampled frequencies. Across continuous phenotype regression, disease classification, and anatomical segmentation, k-MTR achieves highly competitive performance against state-of-the-art image-domain baselines. By showcasing that precise spatial geometries and multi-task features can be successfully recovered directly from the k-space representations, k-MTR provides a robust architectural blueprint for task-aware cardiac MRI workflows.
