Anatomic and Molecular MR Image Synthesis Using Confidence Guided CNNs.

ABSTRACT: Data-driven automatic approaches have demonstrated their great potential in resolving various clinical diagnostic dilemmas in neuro-oncology, especially with the help of standard anatomic and advanced molecular MR images. However, data quantity and quality remain a key determinant, and a significant limit of the potential applications. In our previous work, we explored the synthesis of anatomic and molecular MR image networks (SAMR) in patients with post-treatment malignant gliomas. In this work, we extend this through a confidence-guided SAMR (CG-SAMR) that synthesizes data from lesion contour information to multi-modal MR images, including T1-weighted ( [Formula: see text]), gadolinium enhanced [Formula: see text] (Gd- [Formula: see text]), T2-weighted ( [Formula: see text]), and fluid-a
