- Prerequisites
- Development of algorithms plays an important role in this seminar. Thus, participants should have established programming skills in C++ and/or Matlab.
Furthermore, it is advantageous for participants to have attended lectures on image processing or pattern recognition.
An introduction into the software framework and MRI basics will be given at the beginning of the seminar.
- Contents
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful medical imaging modality that provides a detailed soft tissue contrast. In contrast to computed tomography (CT), the patient is not exposed to radiation during the examination. Recently, methods to speed up image acquisition were proposed that apply iterative reconstruction techniques like compressed sensing to maintain image quality.
In this seminar we will discuss current methods, challenges and promising applications in MR imaging.
The goal of this seminar is to discuss and compare different approaches in the literature. You have the opportunity to implement and evaluate ideas and methods within an MRI reconstruction framework that is currently being developed by the MRI group at the Pattern Recognition Lab (LME).
The reconstruction framework provides modular components for the imaging pipeline, ranging from image acquisition to different reconstruction techniques.
The seminar will cover the following aspects:
MRI simulation and data acquisition schemes
Iterative reconstruction techniques
Sparse image representations (Wavelets, Total Variation)
GPU acceleration / parallelization of performance-critical tasks
Projects Topic 1: Compressed Sensing MRI
Compressed Sensing (CS) algorithms are a powerful family of iterative reconstruction techniques that exploit sparsity in a certain transform domain. Tasks:
Literature research on CS.
Implementation (Matlab/C++) of one CS algorithm within the provided Framework (e.g. ISTA-type).
Comparison against other, already implemented algorithms.
Topic 2: Radial Sampling
Radial trajectories are a recent trend in MRI but require a non-uniform FFT for reconstruction. Therefore, iterative reconstruction algorithms sometimes simulate the trajectory by interpolation onto a Cartesian grid.
Tasks:
Study noise tolerance of radial trajectories vs. cartesian trajectories.
Examine whether pseudo-radial sampling has a similar artifact behaviour as true radial sampling.
Implementation: preferrably C++
Topic 3: Prior image regularization
Especially in dynamic imaging, the difference to a prior image is sometimes used for regularization. The same methods can be used to evaluate quality if a reference image is available. An interesting use case are contrast enhanced examinations, where the perfusion can be assessed by injecting contrast agent. Tasks:
