The main focus of this work is to introduce a single free-breathing and ungated imaging protocol to jointly estimate cardiac function and myocardial T 1 maps. We reconstruct a time series of images corresponding to k-space data from a free-breathing and ungated inversion recovery gradient echo sequence using a manifold algorithm. We model each image in the time series as a non-linear function of three variables: cardiac and respiratory phases and inversion time. The non-linear function is realized using a convolutional neural networks (CNN) generator, while the CNN parameters, as well as the phase information, are estimated from the measured k-t space data. We use a dense conditional auto-encoder to estimate the cardiac and respiratory phases from the central multi-channel k-space samples acquired at each frame. The latent vectors of the auto-encoder are constrained to be bandlimited functions with appropriate frequency bands, which enables the disentanglement of the latent vectors into cardiac and respiratory phases, even when the data are acquired with intermittent inversion pulses. Once the phases are estimated, we pose the image recovery as the learning of the parameters of the CNN generator from the measured k-t space data. The learned CNN generator is used to generate synthetic data on demand by feeding it with appropriate latent vectors. The proposed approach capitalizes on the synergies between cine MRI and T 1 mapping to reduce the scan time and improve patient comfort. The framework also enables the generation of synthetic breath-held cine movies with different inversion contrasts, which improves the visualization of the myocardium. In addition, the approach also enables the estimation of the T 1 maps with specific phases, which is challenging with breath-held approaches. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Current deep learning-based manifold learning algorithms such as the variational autoencoder (VAE) require fully sampled data to learn the probability density of real-world datasets. However, fully sampled data is often unavailable in a variety of problems, including the recovery of dynamic and high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We introduce a novel variational approach to learn a manifold from undersampled data. The VAE uses a decoder fed by latent vectors, drawn from a conditional density estimated from the fully sampled images using an encoder. Since fully sampled images are not available in our setting, we approximate the conditional density of the latent vectors by a parametric model whose parameters are estimated from the undersampled measurements using back-propagation. We use the framework for the joint alignment and recovery of multi-slice free breathing and ungated cardiac MRI data from highly undersampled measurements. Experimental results demonstrate the utility of the proposed scheme in dynamic imaging alignment and reconstructions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Bilinear models such as low-rank and dictionary methods, which decompose dynamic data to spatial and temporal factor matrices are powerful and memory-efficient tools for the recovery of dynamic MRI data. Current bilinear methods rely on sparsity and energy compaction priors on the factor matrices to regularize the recovery. Motivated by deep image prior, we introduce a novel bilinear model, whose factor matrices are generated using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The CNN parameters, and equivalently the factors, are learned from the undersampled data of the specific subject. Unlike current unrolled deep learning methods that require the storage of all the time frames in the dataset, the proposed approach only requires the storage of the factors or compressed representation; this approach allows the direct use of this scheme to large-scale dynamic applications, including free breathing cardiac MRI considered in this work. To reduce the run time and to improve performance, we initialize the CNN parameters using existing factor methods. We use sparsity regularization of the network parameters to minimize the overfitting of the network to measurement noise. Our experiments on free-breathing and ungated cardiac cine data acquired using a navigated golden-angle gradient-echo radial sequence show the ability of our method to provide reduced spatial blurring as compared to classical bilinear methods as well as a recent unsupervised deep-learning approach.

We introduce a generative smoothness regularization on manifolds (SToRM) model for the recovery of dynamic image data from highly undersampled measurements. The model assumes that the images in the dataset are non-linear mappings of low-dimensional latent vectors. We use the deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to represent the non-linear transformation. The parameters of the generator as well as the low-dimensional latent vectors are jointly estimated only from the undersampled measurements. This approach is different from traditional CNN approaches that require extensive fully sampled training data. We penalize the norm of the gradients of the non-linear mapping to constrain the manifold to be smooth, while temporal gradients of the latent vectors are penalized to obtain a smoothly varying time-series. The proposed scheme brings in the spatial regularization provided by the convolutional network. The main benefit of the proposed scheme is the improvement in image quality and the orders-of-magnitude reduction in memory demand compared to traditional manifold models. To minimize the computational complexity of the algorithm, we introduce an efficient progressive training-in-time approach and an approximate cost function. These approaches speed up the image reconstructions and offers better reconstruction performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
