Contrast-enhanced brain MRI synthesis with deep learning: key input modalities and asymptotic performance

Résumé

Contrast-enhanced medical images offer vital insights for the accurate diagnosis, characterization and treatment of tumors, and are routinely used worldwide. Acquiring such images requires to inject the patient intravenously with a gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA). Although GBCAs are considered safe, recent concerns about their accumulation in the body tilted the medical consensus towards a more parsimonious usage. Focusing on the case of brain magnetic resonance imaging, this paper proposes a deep learning method that synthesizes virtual contrast-enhanced T1 images as if they had been acquired after the injection of a standard 0.100 mmol/kg dose of GBCA, taking as inputs complementary imaging modalities obtained either after a reduced injection at 0.025 mmol/kg or without any GBCA involved. The method achieves a competitive structural similarity index of 94.2%. Its asymptotic performance is estimated, and the most important input modalities are identified.
