Synopsis

Deep learning has shown astonishing performance in accelerated MRI. Most methods adopt the convolutional neural network and perform 2D convolution since many MR images or their corresponding k-space are in 2D. In this work, we try a different approach that explores the memory-friendly 1D convolution, making the deep network easier to be trained and generalized. Furthermore, a one-dimensional deep learning architecture (ODL) is proposed for MRI reconstruction. Results demonstrate that, the proposed ODL provides improved reconstructions than state-of-the-art methods and shows nice robustness to some mismatches between the training and test data.
