we proposed a Bloch equation-based autoencoder regularization generative adversarial network (BlochGAN) for MR image synthesis. BlochGAN uses multi-contrast MR images to generate other contrast images without additional scanning.
Entire network structure of the Bloch equation-based autoencoder regularization generative adversarial network (BlochGAN).
Comparison between the reference and the generated T2 fat saturation images from dataset 1. Rows 2, 4, and 6 are the magnified images of the areas in rows 1, 3, and 5 indicated by red arrows.
