Tumor vascularity detection and quantification are of high relevance in the assessment of cancer lesions not only for disease diagnostics but for therapy considerations and monitoring. The present work addressed the quantification of…

Introduction: Quantification of dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI has the potential to provide valuable clinical information, but robust pharmacokinetic modeling remains a challenge for clinical adoption. Methods: A 7-layer neural network…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam protocols consist of multiple contrast-weighted images of the same anatomy to emphasize different tissue properties. Due to the long acquisition times required to collect fully sampled k-space…

Dynamic Contrast Enhanced-Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) is widely used to complement ultrasound examinations and x-ray mammography during the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. However, images generated by various MRI…

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is a valuable non-invasive tool for identifying cardiovascular diseases. For instance, Cine MRI is the benchmark modality for assessing the cardiac function and anatomy. On the other hand, multi-contrast…

Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a crucial non-invasive method used to capture the movement of internal organs and tissues, making it a key tool for medical diagnosis. However, dynamic MRI faces a major challenge: long…

Variational regularization of ill-posed inverse problems is based on minimizing the sum of a data fidelity term and a regularization term. The balance between them is tuned using a positive regularization parameter, whose automatic choice…

The choice of the parameter value for regularized inverse problems is critical to the results and remains a topic of interest. This article explores a criterion for selecting a good parameter value by maximizing the probability of the data,…
