分离幅度和相位建模,提升加速MRI重建清晰度
UMPIRE-Net: Unrolled Magnitude-Phase Regularization Network for Accelerated MRI

- 将幅度与相位分开学习正则化,避免耦合干扰
- 在部分傅里叶成像下,相比基线方法减少伪影并提升锐度
- 适合需要精确相位恢复的快速MRI场景,如高加速成像
从欠采样的k空间测量中进行MRI重建是一个病态逆问题。物理驱动的深度学习(PD-DL)方法通过在算法展开框架中结合MRI前向模型与学习的图像正则化,展现出强大性能。然而,大多数现有PD-DL方法直接重建复数图像,隐式地将幅度与相位耦合在单一学习表征中。在相位建模至关重要的场景(如部分傅里叶成像)中,这种耦合正则可能次优,因为未采样不对称k空间数据的恢复依赖于图像相位。为此,我们提出UMPIRE-Net(Unrolled Magnitude-Phase In REgularization Network),一种引入幅度与相位独立学习正则器的PD-DL方法,并设计了新型数据保真项以确保测量一致性。我们在不同数据集和加速因子下评估了UMPIRE-Net在部分傅里叶加速MRI中的表现。实验结果表明,所提方法相比传统复数域PD-DL基线,显著提升了重建质量,图像更清晰且伪影更少。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
MRI reconstruction from undersampled k-space measurements is an ill-posed inverse problem. Physics-driven deep learning (PD-DL) methods have shown strong performance for this task by combining the MRI forward model with learned image regularization within algorithm-unrolling frameworks. However, most existing PD-DL methods reconstruct complex-valued images directly, thereby implicitly coupling magnitude and phase within a single learned representation. This coupled regularization may be suboptimal in reconstruction settings where accurate phase modeling plays an important role, such as partial Fourier (PF) imaging, where recovery of the omitted asymmetric k-space measurements depends on the underlying image phase. In such scenarios, explicit modeling of magnitude and phase as separate components may reduce the reliance on externally estimated or predefined phase information. To this end, we propose UMPIRE-Net (Unrolled Magnitude-Phase In REgularization Network), a PD-DL method that introduces separate learned regularizers for magnitude and phase components, together with a novel data-fidelity formulation that enforces measurements consistency. We evaluate UMPIRE-Net for accelerated MRI with PF across different datasets and acceleration factors. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method improves reconstruction quality compared with a conventional complex-valued PD-DL baseline, yielding sharper images and reduced artifacts.
