Among these applications, RT cine MRI is particularly important for functional assessment of the heart with high temporal resolution. RT imaging enables free-breathing, ungated imaging of cardiac motion, making it a crucial alternative for patients who cannot tolerate conventional breath-hold, ECG-gated acquisitions. However, achieving high acceleration rates in RT cine MRI is challenging due to aliasing artifacts from extra-cardiac tissues, particularly at high undersampling factors. In this study, we propose a novel outer volume removal (OVR) method to address this challenge by eliminating aliasing contributions from non-cardiac regions in a post-processing framework. Our approach estimates the outer volume signal for each timeframe using composite temporal images from time-interleaved undersampling patterns, which inherently contain pseudo-periodic ghosting artifacts. A deep learning (DL) model is trained to identify and remove these artifacts, producing a clean outer volume estimate that is subsequently subtracted from the corresponding k-space data. The final reconstruction is performed with a physics-driven DL (PD-DL) method trained using an OVR-specific loss function to restore high spatio-temporal resolution images. Experimental results show that the proposed method at high accelerations achieves image quality that is visually comparable to clinical baseline images, while outperforming conventional reconstruction techniques, both qualitatively and quantitatively. The proposed approach provides a practical and effective solution for artifact reduction in RT cine MRI without requiring acquisition modifications, offering a pathway to higher acceleration rates while preserving diagnostic quality.</p>","PeriodicalId":93888,"journal":{"name":"ArXiv","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12060988/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144000351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since neighboring electrodes exhibit spatial correlations, we propose a Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) framework to predict thresholds at unsampled locations while leveraging uncertainty estimates to guide adaptive sampling. Using perceptual threshold data from four Argus II users, we show that GPR with a Matern kerneĺ provides more accurate threshold predictions than a Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel (<i>p</i> < .001, Wilcoxon signed-rank test). In addition, spatially optimized sampling yielded lower prediction error than uniform random sampling for Participants 1 and 3 (<i>p</i> < .05). While adaptive sampling dynamically selects electrodes based on model uncertainty, its accuracy gains over spatial sampling were not statistically significant (<i>p</i> > .05), though it approached significance for Participant 1 (<i>p</i> = .074). These findings establish GPR with spatial sampling as a scalable, efficient approach to retinal prosthesis calibration, minimizing patient burden while maintaining predictive accuracy.

Recently, we proposed to use the Cherenkov light component in partially transparent semiconductors to boost the timing capability of such detectors. Cherenkov light produced upon 511 keV gamma-ray interaction with CLB was investigated by means of optical simulations and experimental measurements. The timing capability of a pair of identical CLB crystals ( 3 x 3 x 5 mm3) coupled to NUV- MT silicon photomultipliers was measured.

Experimentally, we observe 2-to-3 times more photons detected than in the simulation. The two most likely explanations for these additional detected optical photons are either the partial transparency of CLB in the UV, or a mild scintillation light emitted by CLB at room temperature. A coincidence time resolution (CTR) of 419 ps FWHM was obtained by triggering on more than 2 fired SiPM cells and after time walk correction.
