Although high resolution isotropic 3D medical images are desired in clinical practice, their acquisition is not always feasible. Instead, lower resolution images are upsampled to higher resolution using conventional interpolation methods.…

In clinical practice, 2D magnetic resonance (MR) sequences are widely adopted. While individual 2D slices can be stacked to form a 3D volume, the relatively large slice spacing can pose challenges for both image visualization and subsequent…

We propose a marginal super-resolution (MSR) approach based on 2D convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for interpolating an anisotropic brain magnetic resonance scan along the highly under-sampled direction, which is assumed to axial…

High-quality magnetic resonance (MR) image, i.e., with near isotropic voxel spacing, is desirable in various scenarios of medical image analysis. However, many MR acquisitions use large inter-slice spacing in clinical practice. In this…

Though modern microscopes have an autofocusing system to ensure optimal focus, out-of-focus images can still occur when cells within the medium are not all in the same focal plane, affecting the image quality for medical diagnosis and…

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a technology for non-invasive imaging of anatomical features in detail. It can help in functional analysis of organs of a specimen but it is very costly. In this work, methods for (i) virtual…

Ultrasound imaging is challenging to interpret due to non-uniform intensities, low contrast, and inherent artifacts, necessitating extensive training for non-specialists. Advanced representation with clear tissue structure separation could…

Clinical MRI frequently acquires anisotropic volumes with high in-plane resolution and low through-plane resolution to reduce acquisition time. Multiple orientations are therefore acquired to provide complementary anatomical information.…

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) offers high-resolution \emph{in vivo} imaging and rich functional and anatomical multimodality tissue contrast. In practice, however, there are challenges associated with considerations of scanning costs,…

Autoencoders represent an effective approach for computing the underlying factors characterizing datasets of different types. The latent representation of autoencoders have been studied in the context of enabling interpolation between data…

Due to the constraints of the imaging device and high cost in operation time, computer tomography (CT) scans are usually acquired with low intra-slice resolution. Improving the intra-slice resolution is beneficial to the disease diagnosis…

Supervised deep learning approaches can artificially increase the resolution of microscopy images by learning a mapping between two image resolutions or modalities. However, such methods often require a large set of hard-to-get…

Medical imaging is limited by acquisition time and scanning equipment. CT and MR volumes, reconstructed with thicker slices, are anisotropic with high in-plane resolution and low through-plane resolution. We reveal an intriguing phenomenon…

Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most widely used non-invasive imaging modalities for medical diagnosis. In clinical practice, CT images are usually acquired with large slice thicknesses due to the high cost of memory storage and…

We introduce a novel frame-interpolation-based method for slice imputation to improve segmentation accuracy for anisotropic 3D medical images, in which the number of slices and their corresponding segmentation labels can be increased…

In clinical imaging, magnetic resonance (MR) image volumes are often acquired as stacks of 2D slices with decreased scan times, improved signal-to-noise ratio, and image contrasts unique to 2D MR pulse sequences. While this is sufficient…

Three-dimensional segmentation in magnetic resonance images (MRI), which reflects the true shape of the objects, is challenging since high-resolution isotropic MRIs are rare and typical MRIs are anisotropic, with the out-of-plane dimension…

High resolution magnetic resonance~(MR) imaging~(MRI) is desirable in many clinical applications, however, there is a trade-off between resolution, speed of acquisition, and noise. It is common for MR images to have worse through-plane…

In Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), image acquisitions are often undersampled in the measurement domain to accelerate the scanning process, at the expense of image quality. However, image quality is a crucial factor that influences the…

Low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a cost-effective alternative for medical imaging in resource-limited settings. However, its widespread adoption is hindered by two key challenges: prolonged scan times and reduced image…
