MRI Super-Resolution Through Generative Degradation Learning.

ABSTRACT: Spatial resolution plays a critically important role in MRI for the precise delineation of the imaged tissues. Unfortunately, acquisitions with high spatial resolution require increased imaging time, which increases the potential of subject motion, and suffers from reduced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Super-resolution reconstruction (SRR) has recently emerged as a technique that allows for a trade-off between high spatial resolution, high SNR, and short scan duration. Deconvolution-based SRR has recently received significant interest due to the convenience of using the image space. The most critical factor to succeed in deconvolution is the accuracy of the estimated blur kernels that characterize how the image was degraded in the acquisition process. Current methods use handcrafted filters
