In this study, we use Deep Learning-based (DL) method to denoising ASL CBF images. Convolutional neural networks with a “wide” structure, residual learning and batch normalization are utilized as the core of our denoising model. Comparing to non-DL-based methods, the proposed method showed a significant SNR increase as well as partial volume effects improvement. Also, the DL-based method requires less CBF input images, which significantly shorten the acquisition time and reduce the chance of head motion.
