  • Description
    Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning (DL) offer a powerful approach to advancing the clinical application of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). This work presents preliminary results applying AI to Gradient Echo Plural Contrast Imaging (GEPCI), a post-processed multi-echo Gradient Recalled Echo (mGRE) sequence. A series of deep learning networks (AI-GEPCI) were trained to translate GEPCI input images into clinical-quality Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR), Magnetization-Prepared Rapid Acquisition with Gradient Echo (MPRAGE), and R2* maps, along with additional derived contrasts. Radiological and clinical evaluations confirm that the AI-generated images met or exceeded clinical imaging quality standards while also enhancing lower-quality scans affected by acquisition artifacts. These findings highlight the potential of AI-GEPCI to streamline neuroimaging by generating multiple clinically relevant contrasts from a single GEPCI MRI scan.
