Abstract
The disclosure relates to multiplanar reformation of three-dimensional medical images. In particular, the invention provides a method for reformatting image sequences by determining a landmark plane intersecting a volume, acquiring an image sequence, reformatting the image sequence along the landmark plane to produce a first reformatted image sequence, perturbing the landmark plane to produce a perturbed landmark plane, reformatting the first reformatted image sequence along the perturbed landmark plane to produce a second reformatted image sequence, mapping the second reformatted image sequence, the image sequence, and the landmark plane, to a resolution enhanced image sequence using a trained image enhancement network, and displaying the resolution enhanced image sequence via a display device. The present disclosure provides approaches which may reduce image artifacts in retrospectively reformatted image sequences, particularly in cases of retrospective reformatting of medium or low-resolution image sequences, without relying on acquisition of high-resolution 3D images.
