Deep learning-based image quality enhancement of three-dimensional anatomy scan images

Abstract

Techniques are described for enhancing the quality of three-dimensional (3D) anatomy scan images using deep learning. According to an embodiment, a system is provided that comprises a memory that stores computer executable components, and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components comprise a reception component that receives a scan image generated from 3D scan data relative to a first axis of a 3D volume, and an enhancement component that applies an enhancement model to the scan image to generate an enhanced scan image having a higher resolution relative to the scan image. The enhancement model comprises a deep learning neural network model trained on training image pairs respectively comprising a low-resolution scan image and a corresponding high-resolution scan image respectively generated relative to a second axis of the 3D volume.
