A Unified Maximum Likelihood Framework for Simultaneous Motion and T Estimation in Quantitative MR T Mapping
In quantitative MR <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> mapping, the spin-lattice relaxation time <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> of tissues is estimated from a series of <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula>-weighted images. As the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> estimation is a voxel-wise estimation procedure, correct spatial alignment of the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula>-weighted images is crucial. Conventionally, the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula>-weighted images are first registered based on a general-purpose registration metric, after which the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> map is estimated. However, as demonstrated in this paper, such a two-step approach leads to a bias in the final <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> map. In our work, instead of considering motion correction as a preprocessing step, we recover the motion-free <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> map using a unified estimation approach. In particular, we propose a unified framework where the motion parameters and the <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> map are simultaneously estimated with a Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimator. With our framework, the relaxation model, the motion model as well as the data statistics are jointly incorporated to provide substantially more accurate motion and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> parameter estimates. Experiments with realistic Monte Carlo simulations show that the proposed unified ML framework outperforms the conventional two-step approach as well as state-of-the-art model-based approaches, in terms of both motion and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula> map accuracy and mean-square error. Furthermore, the proposed method was additionally validated in a controlled experiment with real <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula>-weighted data and with two in vivo human brain <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">T_{1} </tex-math></inline-formula>-weighted data sets, showing its applicability in real-life scenarios..
