  • Publication number: 20220292737
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for converting magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to a computed tomography (CT) image using an artificial intelligence machine learning model, for use in ultrasound treatment device applications. The method includes acquiring training data including an MRI image and a CT image for machine learning; training an artificial neural network model using the training data, wherein artificial neural network model generates a CT image corresponding to the MRI image, and compares the generated CT image with the original CT image included in the training data; receiving an input MRI image to be converted to a CT image; splitting the input MRI image into a plurality of patches; generating patches of a CT image corresponding to the patches of the input MRI image using the trained artificial neural network model; and merging the patches of the CT image to generate an output CT image.
