L-TGVN: Leveraging Longitudinal Priors for Personalized Rapid MRI 文章

arXiv:2606.04419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: MRI provides excellent soft-tissue contrast without ionizing radiation, but long acquisition times increase patient discomfort while also raising exam costs and limiting scanner throughput. A common approach to reduce scan time is to acquire fewer measurements, which yields an ill-posed linear inverse problem; recovering diagnostic-quality images therefore requires incorporating prior knowledge beyond the measured data. In follow-up exams, the most recent prior scan of a patient can provide a highly informative subject-specific context, but practical use is complicated by temporal changes (including pathology progression), misalignment between scans, and protocol drift across acquisitions. In this work, we introduce L-TGVN, a Longitudinal Trust-Guided Variational Network that leverages prior scans as side information to reconstruct the current scan from heavily undersampled measurements.
