High-fidelity direct contrast synthesis from magnetic resonance fingerprinting.

We present N-DCSNet to directly synthesize high-fidelity multicontrast MR images from a single MRF acquisition. This method can significantly decrease examination time. By directly training a network to generate contrast-weighted images, our method does not require any model-based simulation and therefore can avoid reconstruction errors due to dictionary matching and contrast simulation (code available at:https://github.com/mikgroup/DCSNet).
