A multinational study of deep learning-based image enhancement for multiparametric glioma MRI.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to validate the utility of commercially available vendor-neutral deep learning (DL) image enhancement software for improving the image quality of multiparametric MRI for gliomas in a multinational setting. A total of 294 patients from three institutions (NYU, Severance, and SNUH) who underwent glioma MRI protocols were included in this retrospective study. DL image enhancement was performed on T2-weighted (T2W), T2 FLAIR, and postcontrast T1-weighted (T1W) imaging using commercially available DL image enhancement software. Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were calculated for both conventional and DL-enhanced images. Three neuroradiologists, one from each institution, independently evaluated the following image quality parameters in both images
