Synthesising MRIs from CTs to Improve Stroke Treatment Using Deep Learning

MRI holds an important role in diagnosing brain conditions, however, many patients do not receive an MRI before their diagnosis and onset of treatment. We propose to use deep learning to generate an MRI from a patient's CT and have implemented multiple models to compare their results. Using CT/MRI pairs from 181 stroke patients, we use mutiple deep learning models to generate MRI from the CT images. The model produces high quality images and accurately translates lesions onto the target image.
