A probabilistic denoising diffusion-based framework for even higher accelerated quantitative MRI

Published in ISMRM 2025, 2025

Our proposed approach enables the efficient use of Improved Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models for reconstructing highly accelerated quantitative MRI acquisitions, such as Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting, leading to more accurate tissue parameter estimations.
