High-Resolution MRI Using Artificial Intelligence–Assisted Acceleration and Radial Dynamic Contrast Enhancement for Improved Detection of Pituitary Microadenomas in Cushing’s Disease

Key Points

• To evaluate the effectiveness of AI-assisted acceleration and dynamic contrast enhancement in detecting pituitary microadenomas in Cushing’s Disease.
• Utilized high-resolution MRI techniques with artificial intelligence for image enhancement.
• Implemented dynamic contrast enhancement (DCE) MRI for lesion-type differentiation.
• Assessed image quality and lesion detection during a predefined acquisition time.
• Significantly improved image quality and lesion detection were observed in Cushing's Disease.
• High-resolution imaging was achieved without extending acquisition time.
• DCE-MRI aided in more accurate preoperative localization and diagnosis.
