Abstract
En 中文
Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) is a technique for obtaining quantitative information on tissue susceptibility and has shown promising potential for clinical applications, in which the magnetic susceptibility is calculated by solving an ill-posed inverse problem. Recently, deep learning-based methods are proposed to address this issue, but the diversity of data distribution was not well considered, and thus the model generalization is limited in clinical applications. In this paper, we propose a Latent Code based Multi-Variable modulation network for QSM reconstruction (LCMnet). Particularly, a specific modulation module is exploited to incorporate three variables, i.e., field map, magnitude image, and initial susceptibility. The latent code in the modulated convolution is learned from feature maps of the field data using the encoder-decoder framework. The susceptibility map pre-estimated from simple thresholding is the constant input of the module, thereby enhancing the network stability and accelerating training convergence. As another input, multi-level features generated by a cross-fusion block integrate the information of field and magnitude data effectively. Experimental results on in vivo human brain data, challenge data, clinical data and synthetic data demonstrate that the proposed method LCMnet can achieve outstanding performance on accurate susceptibility measurement and also excellent generalization.
