MAMOC: MRI Motion Correction via Masked Autoencoding
<|reference_start|>MAMOC: MRI Motion Correction via Masked Autoencoding: The presence of motion artifacts in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans poses a significant challenge, where even minor patient movements can lead to artifacts that may compromise the scan's utility.This paper introduces MAsked MOtion Correction (MAMOC), a novel method designed to address the issue of Retrospective Artifact Correction (RAC) in motion-affected MRI brain scans. MAMOC uses masked autoencoding self-supervision, transfer learning and test-time prediction to efficiently remove motion artifacts, producing high-fidelity, native-resolution scans. Until recently, realistic, openly available paired artifact presentations for training and evaluating retrospective motion correction methods did not exist, making it necessary to simulate motion artifacts. Leveraging the MR-ART dataset and bigger unlabeled datasets (ADNI, OASIS-3, IXI), this work is the first to evaluate motion correction in MRI scans using real motion data on a public dataset, showing that MAMOC achieves improved performance over existing motion correction methods.<|reference_end|>
