Abstract
Techniques are disclosed to leverage the use of neural networks or similar machine learning algorithms to de-noise highly accelerated Wave-CAIPIRINHA scans. The described techniques facilitate the generation of 3D sequences using a greatly reduced scan time, with the resulting images having a high spatial resolution and an improved SNR compared to conventional approaches.
