Image-sharpness metrics can be used to optimize optical systems and to control wavefront sensorless adaptive optics systems. We show that for an aberrated system, the numerical value of an image-sharpness metric can be improved by adding specific aberrations. The optimum amplitudes of the additional aberrations depend on the power spectral density of the spatial frequencies of the object.

Late gadolinium enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance with generative artificial intelligence.

Background: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging enables imaging of scar/fibrosis and is a cornerstone of most CMR imaging protocols. CMR imaging can benefit from image acceleration; however, image acceleration in LGE remains challenging due to its limited signal-to-noise ratio. In this study, we sought to evaluate a rapid two-dimensional (2D) LGE imaging protocol using a generative artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm with inline reconstruction.

Objective: To investigate how different combinations of T1-weighted (T1w), T2-weighted (T2w), and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) impact the performance of virtual contrast-enhanced (vCE) breast MRI.
Materials And Methods: The IRB-approved, retrospective study included 1064 multiparametric breast MRI scans (age: 52 ± 12 years) obtained from 2017 to 2020 (single site, two 3-T MRI). Eleven independent neural networks were trained to derive vCE images from varying input combinations of T1w, T2w, and multi-b-value DWI sequences (b-value = 50-1500 s/mm).
Image metric-based multi-observation single-step deep deterministic policy gradient for sensorless adaptive optics.

Sensorless adaptive optics (SAO) has been widely used across diverse fields such as astronomy, microscopy, and ophthalmology. Recent advances have proved the feasibility of using the deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) for image metric-based SAO, achieving fast correction speeds compared to the coordinate search Zernike mode hill climbing (ZMHC) method. In this work, we present a multi-observation single-step DDPG (MOSS-DDPG) optimization framework for SAO on a confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) system with particular consideration for applications in preclinical retinal imaging.

Background: Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) chemical shift encoding (CSE) enables myocardial fat imaging. We sought to develop a deep learning network (fast chemical shift encoding [FastCSE]) to accelerate CSE.
Methods: FastCSE was built on a super-resolution generative adversarial network extended to enhance complex-valued image sharpness.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine the best strength level of QIR for ultra-high-resolution lung imaging using a PCCT scanner.
- It involved 24 patients and compared image quality at different QIR strength levels, finding that higher strength levels significantly reduced noise and improved objective image quality.
- While readers preferred intermediate QIR levels for specific subjective qualities like sharpness, QIR-3 was recommended overall for optimal imaging results.
