    摘要: Quantitative susceptibility mapping methods, systems and computer-accessible medium generate images of tissue magnetism property from complex magnetic resonance imaging data using the Bayesian inference approach, which minimizes a cost function comprising of a data fidelity term and regularization terms. The data fidelity term is constructed directly from the multiecho complex magnetic resonance imaging data. The regularization terms include a prior constructed from matching structures or information content in known morphology, and a prior constructed from regions of low susceptibility contrasts characterized on image features. The quantitative susceptibility map can be determined by minimizing the cost function that involves nonlinear functions in modeling the obtained signals, and the corresponding inverse problem is solved using nonconvex optimization using a scaling approach or deep neural network. The nonconvex optimization is also developed for solving other inverse problems of nonlinear signal models in fat-water separation, tissue transport and oxygen extraction fraction.

    摘要: Exemplary quantitative susceptibility mapping methods, systems and computer-accessible medium can be provided to generate images of tissue magnetism property from complex magnetic resonance imaging data using the Bayesian inference approach, which minimizes a cost function consisting of a data fidelity term and two regularization terms. The data fidelity term is constructed directly from the complex magnetic resonance imaging data. The first prior is constructed from matching structures or information content in known morphology. The second prior is constructed from a region having an approximately homogenous and known susceptibility value and a characteristic feature on anatomic images. The quantitative susceptibility map can be determined by minimizing the cost function. Thus, according to the exemplary embodiment, system, method and computer-accessible medium can be provided for determining magnetic susceptibility information associated with at least one structure.

    摘要: A method for identifying an attribute of an object represented in an image comprising data defining a predetermined spatial granulation for resolving the object, where the object is in contact with another object. In an embodiment, the method comprises identifying data whose values indicate they correspond to locations completely within the object, determining a contribution to the attribute provided by the data, and identifying additional data whose values indicate they are not completely within the object. The method next interpolates second contributions to the attribute from the values of the additional data and finds the attribute of the object from the first contribution and second contributions. The attribute may be, for example, a volume, and the values may correspond, for example, to intensity.
