Title
Synthesizing Dynamic MRI Using Long-Term Recurrent Convolutional Networks.
Abstract
A method is proposed for converting raw ultrasound signals of respiratory organ motion into high frame rate dynamic MRI using a long-term recurrent convolutional neural network. Ultrasound signals were acquired using a single-element transducer, referred to here as 'organ-configuration motion' (OCM) sensor, while sagittal MR images were simultaneously acquired. Both streams of data were used for training a cascade of convolutional layers, to extract relevant features from raw ultrasound, followed by a recurrent neural network, to learn its temporal dynamics. The network was trained with MR images on the output, and was employed to predict MR images at a temporal resolution of 100 frames per second, based on ultrasound input alone, without any further MR scanner input. The method was validated on 7 subjects.
