Carinthia University of Applied Sciences, Klagenfurt, Austria
Impact: This study optimizes an EPI acquisition protocol for super-resolution reconstruction and shows that EPI can enable motion-robust, high-resolution, high-SNR, T2*-weighted imaging of the fetus.
  Figure 360-02-003.  Principled hyperparameter tuning for diffusion-based MRI solvers

Impact: Our framework eliminates manual hyperparameter tuning in diffusion-based reconstruction by deriving principled, data-driven rules for regularization and noise schedules. This automated, theoretically grounded approach improves reconstruction quality by over 2 dB, advancing the practicality of diffusion priors for inverse problems.

Impact: We propose a deep learning based approach that learns to predict scan-specific Cartesian MRI undersampling masks directly from low-frequency k-space, trained using pre-optimized scan-adaptive masks as supervision to enable efficient and generalizable accelerated imaging.
  Figure 360-02-006.  Deep Learning Reconstructed Single Isotropic PD-weighted Imaging of the Knee: Impact on Acquisition Time and Image Quality

Medical Center - University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany
Impact: This study shows that DL-accelerated isotropic PD SPACE imaging preserves diagnostic confidence while cutting knee MRI time by two-thirds. These findings may inform more efficient MRI protocols, improving patient throughput and expanding clinical access without compromising diagnostic quality.
