In this paper, we introduce a deep residual learning approach to extract brain vessels from contrast-enhanced(CE) magnetic resonance images. Our experiment results show that we can successfully achieve and visualize brain vessel information from CE MRI without magnetic resonance angiography and magnetic resonance venography(MRA/V) that are currently used for brain vessel extraction.
