摘要: In this paper we first discuss the technical challenges preventing an automated analysis of cardiac perfusion MR images and subsequently present a fully unsupervised workflow to address problems. The proposed solution consists key-frame detection, consecutive motion compensation, surface coil inhomogeneity correction using proton density robust generation pixel-wise parameter maps. entire processing chain has been implemented on clinical systems achieve inline MRI. Validation results are reported for 260 time series, demonstrating feasibility approach.
