In this paper, a hybrid image-wavelet domain reconstruction network (HIWDNet) is proposed for fast MRI reconstruction by integrating different modules for structure reconstruction and artifact removal in the image domain and wavelet domain. Experimental results demonstrate that HIWDNet achieves better reconstruction performance compared to other methods on different datasets.
The application of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is limited due to the long acquisition time of k-space signals. Recently, many deep learning-based MR image reconstruction methods have been proposed to reduce acquisition time and improve MRI image quality by reconstructing images from under-sampled k-space data. However, these methods suffer from two shortcomings. Firstly, the reconstruction network are mainly designed in the image domain or frequency domain, while ignoring the characteristics of time-frequency features in the wavelet domain. In addition, the existing cross-domain methods design the same reconstruction network in different transform domains, so that the network cannot learn targeted information for different domains. To solve the above problems, we propose a Hybrid Image-Wavelet Domain Reconstruction Network (HIWDNet) for fast MRI reconstruction. Specifically, we employ Cross-scale Dense Feature Fusion Module (CDFFM) in the image domain to reconstruct the basic structure of MR images, while introducing Region Adaptive Artifact Removal Module (RAARM) to remove aliasing artifacts in large areas. Then, a Wavelet Sub-band Reconstruction Module (WSRM) is proposed to refine wavelet sub-bands to improve the accuracy of HIWDNet. The proposed method is evaluated in different sampling modes on the fastMRI dataset, the CC359 dataset and the IXI dataset. Extensive experimental results show that HIWDNet achieves better results on both SSIM and PSNR evaluation metrics compared with other methods.
