Sumario:To assess the feasibility of a denoising approach with deep learning-based reconstruction (dDLR) for fast volume simultaneous multi-slice diffusion tensor imaging of the brain, noise reduction effects and the reliability of diffusion metrics were evaluated with 20 patients. Image noise was significantly decreased with dDLR. Although fractional anisotropy (FA) of deep gray matter was overestimated when the number of image acquisitions was one (NAQ1), FA in NAQ1 with dDLR became closer to that in NAQ5.
