arXiv:2607. 20136v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Slice-to-volume reconstruction (SVR) is the standard method for obtaining high-resolution (HR) 3D fetal brain volumes from motion-corrupted 2D MRI slice stacks acquired in multiple orientations.
The paper presents an anatomy‑aligned surface learning framework for reconstructing patient‑specific 4D myocardial surfaces from sparsely sampled short‑axis cine MRI. By parameterizing epicardial and endocardial surfaces on a shared circumferential‑longitudinal UV domain, the method transforms irregular 3D reconstruction into structured coordinate‑field completion, enabling explicit correspondence across subjects and cardiac phases. Experiments on three public datasets show the approach outperforms mesh‑based and implicit methods, achieving Chamfer distances around 2.6–2.9 mm and preserving ventricular function with small errors in volume and ejection fraction.
The paper introduces Anatomy-Informed Neural Networks (AINN), which embed soft and hard anatomical priors into the loss function and network architecture to prevent anatomically impossible predictions. AINN is applied to a clinical scenario of aortoiliac deformation caused by a guidewire, modeling vessel and wire dynamics in SE(3) and training with a Wasserstein-2 loss from 2D angiograms. The study verifies the kinematics and loss against ground truth but does not yet train a network, outlining future work to apply the model to real CT data.
