The paper introduces CM-RED, a fast MRI reconstruction method that combines a pretrained consistency model with the regularization by denoising framework. By integrating controlled noise injection into accelerated proximal gradient updates, CM-RED achieves high‑quality reconstructions on fastMRI knee and brain datasets with only four network function evaluations. It consistently outperforms existing diffusion‑ and consistency‑based approaches in quantitative metrics, visual fidelity, and robustness to hyperparameter changes.

The paper introduces τ+C+Mag, a physics‑driven deep learning method that incorporates auxiliary k‑space magnitude information into accelerated steady‑state dynamic MRI reconstruction. By observing strong consistency of k‑space magnitudes across time‑frames, the authors develop an ADMM‑based unrolling framework with a magnitude‑aware data‑fidelity term, using quadratically smoothed optimization and momentum updates to handle non‑differentiability and non‑convexity. Experiments on retrospectively and prospectively undersampled cine and phase‑contrast flow MRI datasets show improved artifact suppression, sharper anatomical detail, and better phase preservation compared to conventional PD‑DL approaches, as confirmed by blinded expert readers.

The paper introduces CoSMo-RecNet, a modular framework for multi-contrast MRI reconstruction that operates effectively in low-data regimes. It leverages a reusable content/style prior learned from large, unpaired multi-contrast image datasets, allowing a lightweight unrolled network to refine reconstructions using only a few task‑specific training samples. Experiments on low‑field 0.3 T and ultra‑low‑field 47 mT datasets demonstrate that CoSMo-RecNet outperforms parameter‑matched MoDL, classical reconstruction, transfer learning, and zero‑shot methods, achieving higher quality with as few as five training subjects.

The paper introduces Latent Drift, a generative forecasting framework that predicts slow-evolving neurodegenerative disease progression by learning changes in a compressed semantic representation rather than full-resolution anatomy. It addresses two failure modes—identity collapse and continuous interpolation trap—by removing pixel-level identity from the prediction target and applying Finite Scalar Quantization to suppress high-frequency nuisance fluctuations. Experiments on longitudinal 3D brain MRI demonstrate that Latent Drift outperforms diffusion and autoregressive transformer baselines in both generative fidelity and clinically relevant metrics.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) super-resolution is vital for improving diagnostic accessibility, yet most methods treat it as a deterministic mapping from a fixed low-resolution input to a high-resolution target. This overlooks a key property of MRI acquisition physics: spatial resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are inherently coupled, making any given low-resolution scan merely one of many possible realizations under varying acquisition trade-offs.
FlowMoDL is an unrolled neural network designed for highly accelerated 4D flow MRI reconstruction, optimizing both anatomical magnitude and phase-derived velocity accuracy. It alternates a learned (3+1)D spatiotemporal denoiser with conjugate‑gradient data‑consistency updates, using a dual‑pathway conditioning scheme to handle acceleration factors from 10× to 50×. Trained with a deep‑supervision composite loss that penalizes velocity magnitude and angular errors, FlowMoDL outperforms classical and deep‑learning baselines on the multi‑center CMRx4DFlow dataset, achieving superior gradient‑step efficiency and robust convergence across all acceleration factors.
