1H Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) suffers low Signal-Noise Ratio (SNR) due to low concentrations of metabolites. To improve the SNR, the current mainstream is to do Signal Averaging with repeated samplings but it is time-consuming. Therefore, we designed a novel denoising ReLSTM-Net to learn the mapping from the low SNR MRS to the high SNR one in the time-domain by a few in vivo measured data. Denoised spectra by the proposed method has higher accuracy and reliability in quantifying metabolites Glx, tCho and mI, compared with the state-of-art Low-Rank method.
