Image registration of liver dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT) is crucial for diagnosis and image-guided surgical planning of liver cancer. However, intensity variations due to the flow of contrast agents combined with…

In conventional 2D DCE-US, motion correction algorithms take advantage of accompanying side-by-side anatomical Bmode images that contain time-stable features. However, current commercial models of 3D DCE-US do not provide side-by-side Bmode…

Glioma growth may be quantified with longitudinal image registration. However, the large mass-effects and tissue changes across images pose an added challenge. Here, we propose a longitudinal, learning-based, and groupwise registration…

Background: Current mainstream cardiovascular magnetic resonance-feature tracking (CMR-FT) methods, including optical flow and pairwise registration, often suffer from the drift effect caused by accumulative tracking errors. Here, we…

Dynamic Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is a tissue perfusion imaging technique. Some versatile free-breathing DCE-MRI techniques combining compressed sensing (CS) and parallel imaging with golden-angle radial…

This paper aims to create a deep learning framework that can estimate the deformation vector field (DVF) for directly registering abdominal MRI-CT images. The proposed method assumed a diffeomorphic deformation. By using topology-preserved…

Diffeomorphic image registration is a commonly used method to deform one image to resemble another. While warping a single image to another is useful, it can be advantageous to warp multiple images simultaneously, such as in tracking the…

Multiparametric mapping MRI has become a viable tool for myocardial tissue characterization. However, misalignment between multiparametric maps makes pixel-wise analysis challenging. To address this challenge, we developed a generalizable…

Image segmentation and registration are said to be challenging when applied to dynamic contrast enhanced MRI sequences (DCE-MRI). The contrast agent causes rapid changes in intensity in the region of interest and elsewhere, which can lead…

Quantitative $T_1$ mapping by MRI is an increasingly important tool for clinical assessment of cardiovascular diseases. The cardiac $T_1$ map is derived by fitting a known signal model to a series of baseline images, while the quality of…

Quantitative cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an increasingly important diagnostic tool for cardiovascular diseases. Yet, co-registration of all baseline images within the quantitative MRI sequence is essential for the accuracy…

Medical image registration is a fundamental task in medical image analysis, enabling the alignment of images from different modalities or time points. However, intensity inconsistencies and nonlinear tissue deformations pose significant…

Deformable image registration, estimating the spatial transformation between different images, is an important task in medical imaging. Many previous studies have used learning-based methods for multi-stage registration to perform 3D image…

This paper presents a method for virtual contrast enhancement in breast MRI, offering a promising non-invasive alternative to traditional contrast agent-based DCE-MRI acquisition. Using a conditional generative adversarial network, we…

Diffusion tensor based cardiovascular magnetic resonance (DT-CMR) offers a non-invasive method to visualize the myocardial microstructure. With the assumption that the heart is stationary, frames are acquired with multiple repetitions for…

Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) is a valuable tool to localize, characterize, and evaluate anomalous prostate tissue. Ultrafast gradient-echo acquisitions of MRI volumes are generated at regular time intervals…

Most MRI liver segmentation methods use a structural 3D scan as input, such as a T1 or T2 weighted scan. Segmentation performance may be improved by utilizing both structural and functional information, as contained in dynamic contrast…

Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE- MRI) is a widely used multi-phase technique routinely used in clinical practice. DCE and similar datasets of dynamic medical data tend to contain redundant information on the…

Quantitative cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables non-invasive myocardial tissue characterization but relies on robust motion correction within these variable-length, variable-contrast image sequences. Groupwise registration,…
