Isotropic Reconstruction of MR Images Using 3D Patch-Based Self-Similarity Learning.

Isotropic three-dimensional (3D) acquisition is a challenging task in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Particularly in cardiac MRI, due to hardware and time limitations, current 3D acquisitions are limited by low-resolution, especially in the through-plane direction, leading to poor image quality in that dimension. To overcome this problem, super-resolution (SR) techniques have been proposed to r...
