DeepInPy code obtained from https://github.com/utcsilab/deepinpy (Tamir et al., 2020, ISMRM).
Signal processing utility functions provided by SigPy (https://sigpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) (Ong et al., 2019, ISMRM) and BART (http://mrirecon.github.io/bart/) (Uecker et al. 2016, ISMRM).
Dataset provided by FastMRI (https://fastmri.org/) (Knoll et al., 2020, Radiology).
K-band provides a novel method for training MRI reconstruction networks on limited-resolution data. This allows for training data to be efficiently acquired in k-space bands, as this can speed up acquisition while reducing artifacts. Importantly, the band orientation changes randomly across examples, hence during training the network is exposed to all k-space areas. During inference, the network can reconstruct full-resolution images.
The scripts in kband/ simulate low-resolution band acquisition from the fully sampled fastMRI database in preparation for training k-band and other comparison methods such as MoDL and SSDU. Example usage of these scripts can be seen below:
python kband/generate_maps.py --train [train data path] --test [test data path] --train_out [processed train data output path] --test_out [processed test data output path] -d [knee/brain/other]
For knee data: Filters proton density knee data of dimensions 640x372 with top/bottom 8 slices removed, and the calculates sensitivity maps using bart.
For brain data: Filters out brain data of dimensions 640x320 with 16 coil measurements per scan, and the calculates sensitivity maps using bart.
For other data: specify config parameters (height, width, etc.) inside generate_maps.py.
python kband/generate_data.py --config [knee/brain/other]
Generates training, validation, and test data files. Height/width for cropping and path to load/save data can be adjusted in the config dict inside generate_data.py. The generated h5 data will consist of the following fields:
ksp: [Nsamples, Ncoils, NX, NY]
imgs: [Nsamples, NX, NY]
maps: [Nsamples, Ncoils, NX, NY]
python kband/generate_masks.py --config [knee/brain/other] --type [kband/modl/ssdu/square/vertical] --undersampling [2d/1d]
Generates training, validation, and test mask files. Height/width/undersampling rate and path to save data can be adjusted in the config dict inside generate_data.py. Undersampling method can be chosen from 2D or 1D Poisson disc sampling. The generated h5 masks will consist of the following fields:
masks: [Nsamples, NX, NY]
loss_masks: [Nsamples, NX, NY]
DeepInPy (slightly modified from the original) provides our training framework. In order to run expirements, run
python deepinpy/main.py --config {some/path/to/config.json}

"data_inference_file": path to inference data (h5 format)
"masks_train_file": path to training masks (h5 format)
"masks_val_file": path to validation masks (h5 format)
"masks_inference_file": path to inference masks (h5 format)
