Ideally, neuro exams would include a variety of contrast types along with basic MRI parametric maps, with full-brain 3D coverage and good spatial resolution. However, tradeoffs exist between the number of contrasts, spatial coverage, spatial resolution, and scan time. We developed a 3D multi-pathway multi-echo (MPME) sequence that rapidly captures vast amounts of information about the object, and a ‘contrast translator’ to convert this information into desired contrasts. More specifically, a neural network converts 3D full-brain MPME data acquired in about 7 min into MPRAGE, FLAIR, T1W, T2W, T1 and T2 volumes, with the goal of abbreviating neuro exams.
