Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for processing medical images using deep neural networks. In one embodiment, a medical image processing method comprises receiving a first medical image having a first characteristic and one or more acquisition parameters corresponding to acquisition of the first medical image, incorporating the one or more acquisition parameters into a trained deep neural network, and mapping, by the trained deep neural network, the first medical image to a second medical image having a second characteristic. The deep neural network may thereby receive at least partial information regarding the type, extent, and/or spatial distribution of the first characteristic in a first medical image, enabling the trained deep neural network to selectively convert the received first medical image.
