Adaptive diffusion priors for accelerated MRI reconstruction.

Deep MRI reconstruction is commonly performed with conditional models that de-alias undersampled acquisitions to recover images consistent with fully-sampled data. Since conditional models are trained with knowledge of the imaging operator, they can show poor generalization across variable operators. Unconditional models instead learn generative image priors decoupled from the operator to improve reliability against domain shifts related to the imaging operator.

Federated Learning of Generative Image Priors for MRI Reconstruction.

Multi-institutional efforts can facilitate training of deep MRI reconstruction models, albeit privacy risks arise during cross-site sharing of imaging data. Federated learning (FL) has recently been introduced to address privacy concerns by enabling distributed training without transfer of imaging data. Existing FL methods employ conditional reconstruction models to map from undersampled to fully-sampled acquisitions via explicit knowledge of the accelerated imaging operator.

Unsupervised MRI Reconstruction via Zero-Shot Learned Adversarial Transformers.

Supervised reconstruction models are characteristically trained on matched pairs of undersampled and fully-sampled data to capture an MRI prior, along with supervision regarding the imaging operator to enforce data consistency. To reduce supervision requirements, the recent deep image prior framework instead conjoins untrained MRI priors with the imaging operator during inference. Yet, canonical convolutional architectures are suboptimal in capturing long-range relationships, and priors based on randomly initialized networks may yield suboptimal performance.
