Zusammenfassung:
Analysis of CEST data often requires complex mathematical modeling before contrast generation, which can be error prone and time-consuming. Here, a probabilistic deep learning approach is introduced to shortcut conventional Lorentzian fitting analysis of 3T in-vivo CEST data by learning from previously evaluated data. It is demonstrated that the trained networks generalize to data of a healthy subject and a brain tumor patient, providing CEST contrasts in a fraction of the conventional evaluation time. Additionally, the probabilistic network architecture enables uncertainty quantification, indicating if predictions are trustworthy, which is assessed by perturbation analysis.
