Abstract

BACKGROUND: To determine whether deep learning reconstruction (DLR) could improve the image quality of rectal MR images, and to explore the discrimination of the TN stage of rectal cancer by different readers and deep learning classification models, compared with conventional MR images without DLR. METHODS: Images of high-resolution T2-weighted, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and contrast-enha…
