xQSM: quantitative susceptibility mapping with octave convolutional and noise‐regularized neural networks

Abstract: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) provides a valuable MRI contrast mechanism that has demonstrated broad clinical applications. However, the image reconstruction of QSM is challenging due to its ill‐posed dipole inversion process. In this study, a new deep learning method for QSM reconstruction, namely xQSM, was designed by introducing noise regularization and modified octave convolutional layers into a U‐net backbone and trained with synthetic and in vivo datasets, respectively. The xQSM method was co… Show more

“…Another method, namely QSMnet, [39] proposed by Yoon et al, trained the neural network with in vivo dataset generated from multiple head orientations (i.e., COSMOS) [40]. Recently, Yang et al [41] developed a new deep learning method, named xQSM, by introducing Octave convolution [42] into the U-net [43] architecture to improve the traditional convolutional layers. This Octave convolution network replaced the original convolution into four crossing operations, resulting in high and low-frequency groups of different matrix sizes, which saves storage and reduces the computation redundancy of traditional neural networks.…”

“…Lai et al ( 2020 ) presented a learned proximal convolutional neural network (LP-CNN) to perform dipole inversion in an iterative proximal gradient descent fashion. Gao et al ( 2020 ) proposed an improved U-Net framework, namely xQSM, for dipole inversion by incorporating octave convolution (OctConv) (Chen et al, 2019 ) layers. Feng et al ( 2021 ) proposed an STI-based deep learning architecture for single-orientation QSM, referred to as MoDL-QSM, which can preserve the nature of anisotropic magnetic susceptibility in brain white matter (WM).…”
