摘要
En 中文
Upsampling and denoising of magnetic resonance images are conventionally performed separately, which would introduce unwanted artifacts such as blurring. To address this problem, we propose an innovative adaptive interpolation framework to achieve simultaneous image upsampling, denoising, and detail enhancement. First, local steering kernel (LSK) function is leveraged to adapt the interpolation weights according to geometric structures in the magnetic resonance (MR) images. An adaptive sharpening of the LSK weight matrix and a Rician bias correction are then adopted to remove Rician noise and enhance fine details. In this regard, the adaptive LSK extends the zero-order point estimation framework to higher orders of regression, and therefore facilitates edge preservation and detail reconstruction. The post-processing Rician correction avoids the bias caused by the asymmetry of Rician noise distributions. Experimental results using both real and synthetic clinical MR cranial images (with and without noise) demonstrated that our algorithm produced better reconstruction results than several traditional interpolation-based upsampling methods, including nearest neighbor (NN), non-local means (NLM), self-learning super resolution (SLSR), Gaussian process regression (GPR), and even comparable to four deep-learning-based methods but with less data requirements and computational complexity. The proposed technique resulted in PSNR and SSIM values were similar to 3%-16% higher than any of the other traditional algorithms tested, and our method recovered more clear textures from noisy images compared with deep-learning-based methods. As such, the presented technique is a viable new approach to MR upsampling, particularly for noisy images.
