Abstract

Parallel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely-used technique that accelerates data collection by making use of the spatial encoding provided by multiple receiver coils. A key issue in parallel MRI is the estimation of coil sensitivity maps (CSMs) that are used for reconstructing a single high-quality image. This paper addresses this issue by developing SS-JIRCS, a new self-supervised model-based deep-learning (DL) method for image reconstruction that is equipped with automated CSM calibration. Our deep network consists of three types of modules: data-consistency, regularization, and CSM calibration. Unlike traditional supervised DL methods, these modules are directly trained on undersampled and noisy k-space data rather than on fully sampled high-quality ground truth. We present empirical results on simulated data that show the potential of the proposed method for achieving better performance than several baseline methods.
