Reduction of Truncation Artifacts by Massive-Training Artificial Neural Network (MTANN) in Fast-Acquisition MRI of the Knee
Maodong Xiang, Ze Jin, Kenji Suzuki (Tokyo Tech) IE2021-31
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) MRI has a relatively long acquisition time, leading to patient comfort problems and artifacts from patient motion. Accelerated MRI acquisitions by taking fewer samples in the k-space involve a trade-off between the image-quality degradation due to artifacts and acquisition time. The purpose of our study was to reduce truncation artifacts in reconstructing MR images from under-sampled k-space data in fast-acquisition MRI. This study proposed a novel massive-training artificial neural network (MTANN) scheme. The MTANN is our original deep-learning model that employs neural network regression in a convolutional manner. To investigate the nature of k-space under-sampling, we proposed a sampling pattern-specific kernel that extends the conventional square kernel to exploit more spatial information that can help MTANN to reduce truncation artifacts. We conducted experiments to evaluate the performance of our scheme with under-sampled MR images of 20 patients with 795 slices. The results showed that our proposed MTANN scheme substantially reduced artifacts in reconstructed MR images from under-sampled k-space data, while the image quality was well-maintained.
