Total variation regularization of diffusion weighted images for reducing noise of diffusional kurtosis MRI

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Diffusional kurtosis imaging (DKI) is an MR imaging method for quantifying non-Gaussianity of water molecule based on a set of diffusion weighted images (DWI) of several magnitude of motion probing gradient. It is observed that noise in DWI causes pepper-like noise on subsequent kurtosis images by computation error. We aimed at reduction of the computation error by using total variation (TV) regularization of the set of DW. By using a synthetic data set and a clinical brain data set of a healthy volunteer, we confirmed the effect of TV regularization.
