Automated quality assessment of MRI is of great
importance to derive reliable diagnostic information. In
this work, a synthetic noise-based method is proposed
which allows automated data quality classification. Only
a prescan measurement of noise and a single image
acquisition are required. The validation based on 764
head scans confirms the robustness and reliability of
the method. As integrated as a prototype in online image
reconstruction, it can greatly improve clinical workflow
as MR technologist is provided with immediate feedback
and can potentially repeat low-quality scans within the
same session.
