Zusammenfassung:Deep-learning-based MR image reconstruction in settings where large fully sampled dataset collection is infeasible requires methods that effectively use both under-sampled and fully sampled datasets. This paper evaluates a weakly supervised, multi-coil, physics-guided approach to MR image reconstruction, leveraging both dataset types, to improve both the quality and robustness of reconstruction. A physics-guided end-to-end variational network (VarNet) is pretrained in a self-supervised manner using a 4 × under-sampled dataset following the self-supervised learning via data undersampling (SSDU) methodology. The pre-trained weights are transferred to another VarNet, which is fine-tuned using a smaller, fully sampled dataset by optimizing multi-scale structural similarity (MS-SSIM) loss in image space. The proposed methodology is compared with fully self-supervised and fully supervised training. Reconstruction quality improvements in SSIM, PSNR, and NRMSE when abundant training data is available (the high-data regime), and enhanced robustness when training data is scarce (the low-data regime) are demonstrated using weak supervision for knee and brain MR image reconstructions at 8 × and 10 × acceleration, respectively. Multi-coil physics-guided MR image reconstruction using both under-sampled and fully sampled datasets is achievable with transfer learning and fine-tuning. This methodology can provide improved reconstruction quality in the high-data regime and improved robustness in the low-data regime at high acceleration rates.
