Abstract
PURPOSE To design an unsupervised deep learning (DL) model for correcting Nyquist ghosts of single-shot spatiotemporal encoding (SPEN) and evaluate the model for real MRI applications. METHODS The proposed method consists of three main components: (1) an unsupervised network that combines Residual Encoder and Restricted Subspace Mapping (RERSM-net) and is trained to generate a phase-difference map based on the even and odd SPEN images; (2) a spin physical forward model to obtain the corrected image with the learned phase difference map; and (3) cycle-consistency loss that is explored for training the RERSM-net. RESULTS The proposed RERSM-net could effectively generate smooth phase difference maps and correct Nyquist ghosts of single-shot SPEN. Both simulation and real in vivo MRI experiments demonstrated that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art SPEN Nyquist ghost correction method. Furthermore, the ablation experiments of generating phase-difference maps show the advantages of the proposed unsupervised model. CONCLUSION The proposed method can effectively correct Nyquist ghosts for the single-shot SPEN sequence.

Abstract
Due primarily to the excellent soft tissue contrast depictions provided by MRI, the widespread application of head and neck MRI in clinical practice serves to assess various diseases. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based methodologies, particularly deep learning analyses using convolutional neural networks, have recently gained global recognition and have been extensively investigated in clinical research for their applicability across a range of categories within medical imaging, including head and neck MRI. Analytical approaches using AI have shown potential for addressing the clinical limitations associated with head and neck MRI. In this review, we focus primarily on the technical advancements in deep-learning-based methodologies and their clinical utility within the field of head and neck MRI, encompassing aspects such as image acquisition and reconstruction, lesion segmentation, disease classification and diagnosis, and prognostic prediction for patients presenting with head and neck diseases. We then discuss the limitations of current deep-learning-based approaches and offer insights regarding future challenges in this field.
