Abstract:Diffusion-weighted MR images are typically obtained as multiple acquisitions with multiple diffusion-sensitizing gradient directions. Due to molecular motion, some acquisitions suffer from signal loss at random locations. This affects cancer conspicuity and degrades the diagnostic efficacy of DWI. We propose an agglomerative clustering-based unsupervised method to address this. The model automatically rejects acquisitions of voxels that are likely to be corrupted by bulk motion and lack coherence with the rest… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
