We propose a deep learning-based single-step QSM reconstruction method that directly estimates magnetic susceptibility from total phase images without brain extraction. 209 healthy subjects with ages ranging from 11 to 82 years were employed for network training. The trained network provides superior image quality and high reconstruction speed compared to other single-step QSM methods. In addition, the elimination of the brain extraction step makes it possible to estimate susceptibility near the boundaries and explore the magnetic susceptibility of whole brain vascular images.
