Multi-GPU Reconstruction of Dynamic Compressed Sensing MRI

چکیده
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely used in-vivo imaging technique that is essential to the diagnosis of disease, but its longer acquisition time hinders its wide adaptation in time-critical applications, such as emergency diagnosis. Recent advances in compressed sensing (CS) research have provided promising theoretical insights to accelerate the MRI acquisition process, but CS reconstruction also poses computational challenges that makes MRI less practical. In this paper, we introduce a fast, scalable parallel CS-MRI reconstruction method that runs on graphics processing unit (GPU) cluster systems for dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI. We propose a modified Split-Bregman iteration using a variable splitting method for CS-based DCE-MRI. We also propose a parallel GPU Split-Bregman solver that scales well across multiple GPUs to handle large data size. We demonstrate the validity of the proposed method on several synthetic and real DCE-MRI datasets and compare with existing methods.

Compressed Sensing Dynamic MRI Reconstruction Using GPU-accelerated 3D Convolutional Sparse Coding
In this paper, we introduce a fast alternating method for reconstructing highly undersampled dynamic MRI data using 3D convolutional sparse coding. The proposed solution leverages Fourier Convolution Theorem to accelerate the process of learning a set of 3D filters and iteratively refine the MRI reconstruction based on the sparse codes found subsequently. In contrast to conventional CS methods ...

متن کاملClinically Feasible Reconstruction Time for L1-SPIRiT Parallel Imaging and Compressed Sensing MRI
Introduction: It has been shown that L1-SPIRiT [1], a method that combines parallel imaging and compressed sensing, has potential for reducing MRI scan times and improving image quality [2]. However, the clinical applicability of the technique is limited by the computational difficulty of the reconstruction. Reconstruction must be nearly instantaneous, but a straightforward implementation of L1...
متن کاملAccelerating Magnetic Resonance Imaging through Compressed Sensing Theory in the Direction space-k
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive imaging method widely used in medical diagnosis. Data in MRI are obtained line-by-line within the K-space, where there are usually a great number of such lines. For this reason, magnetic resonance imaging is slow. MRI can be accelerated through several methods such as parallel imaging and compressed sensing, where a fraction of the K-space lines...
