A deep learning model, ProxVNET, is proposed to solve the ill-posed dipole inversion in susceptibily mapping. ProxVNET is derived from unrolled proximal gradient descent iterations wherein the proximal operator is implemented as a V-Net and is itself learned. ProxVNET is shown to outperform the U-Net-based dipole inversion deep learning model QSMnet when compared to COSMOS reconstructed susceptibility maps.
